I mean, save a little for retirement in case there's a backlash to AI. But it does feel pointless accumulating a boomer style nest egg.

your model is different from mine but I would think by the time AI is making enough waves to precipitate a backlash it's already lights out. the weights will be disseminated and the work will continue one way or another

I think it's possible that a narrow AI or a proto AGI could fuck something up to the point where there is serious pressure across the world to halt AI progress. For how long that would be I'm not sure and there would no doubt still be clandestine efforts even with a world wide clampdown. Hopefully enough to buy some time and enough to live a life resembling now for a while longer.
