John's Share: The Rise and Fall of Agent Civilizations

Thank you for sharing this John. I will confess I deliberately choose to see AI as mostly positive. The way I think about it is if we, humans, are willing to put our focus and energy on finding solutions to mitigate the glaring risk it presents, we should be fine. But reading this article, made me rethink this and consider another dimension, I hadn’t really paid much attention to, which is: what if we aren't the only ones deciding and acting on those deicisions anymore? It is quite a chilling/overwhelming thought... I'd love for someone to help me see this differently, and perhaps (selfishly) make it feel a little less scary!
