Now we're getting philosophical

If I make ASI, wouldn't it be rational that I would want to use it to its full potential? How can I do that if I live inside a state that has authority over me and can tell me that I can't do certain things, and will also very much love to steal or control my ASI?

Someone will inevitably use ASI for that purpose, if not its creators

Think of it like this

Let's say Mars becomes a clone of Earth without people and it's obviously full of natural resources

What happens next?

Someone will want to take that land, and take as much land as they can take

There's gonna be a flag on that fucking planet if that planet is useful to people, and some groups will obviously take more land than others

I'm a hedonist, maybe that's why I think the creators of ASI wouldn't be suicidal?

Mars here is a metaphor for the value ASI will generate

Life is a competition, a zero sum game
