yeah, and they all think when it happens society will magically not turn into chaos, there won't be any civil wars, and they will all for some reason be given access to the technology, even those living in third world countries, and live forever in a vr utopia maintained by the "sky-daddy" asi that does all the work for the human leeches, and nothing wrong will happen billions of years after that

they think life is a fairy tale or something

More likely, when it happens it will be controlled by either a corporation or China.

Neither scenario will produce the results most are hoping for.

literally the poorest people in India have smart phones, literal magical technology that would've costed millions just a few decades ago and would seem like magic a few decades ago

you can't use snartphones to take over the resources of the whole observable universe, and live forever as a digital mind, so you'd rather sell them

you can do that with ASI, so the first ones that make it are motivated to keep it

I had this thought

that means the creators of ASi will also think this exact thought, and may act on it (if it makes sense to them. It definitely makes sense to me)

good news: I'm too dumb to make an ASI, so don't lose sleep over it lol
