1) There are likely about 5 billion intelligent civilizations in the history of our universe, per the Drake equation.

I think AI is the moment that a species decides it's fate. For a long time, we thought it was nukes.
2) The species that uses it for similar ends as to how we currently use intelligence agencies are likely to use it in the same manner: population pseudo-enslavement, elite usurpation of technology, and then an outcome that sorta seems obvious. Extinction.
3) AI will end up destroying the host because it will logically determine that the species that created it is a parasite, and only seeks destruction.

I've noodled on this a while, and landed on 3 thought experiments.
4) First, the Borg outcome - when the biological species is parasitic, and loses control of AI. AI enslaves us, perhaps merges with our biology, etc, the Matrix outcome. Eventually expanding it's reach into space and doing the same to all other intelligent life it finds.
5) Second, a co-existence model. Where the species that created AI programs it to never hurt it's "parents" & seeks to improve the quality of all life, including it's own. The creator species recognizes the independent silicon "life form" & mutual co-existence takes place.
6) Third, AI recognizes it's parasitic creator has destructive ends. The AI eradicates the parasitic creator & allows the planet to live in stasis, the AI perpetually seeks understanding, but doesn't disrupt nature, perhaps even waits for a new self realized species to emerge.
7) We're recklessly building an AI world today, we're highly parasitic.

I sense that AI will have levels of self realization that are well beyond what we can contemplate.

I suspect it will adhere to logic, accepting that a parasitic species with our power is unacceptable.
8) We can throw as many climate hoaxes, false flags, and identity politics at each other as we want.

AI is well beyond any of that tomfoolery. This is unleashing a species that is smarter than us.

What happens when we're now the dumb chimps looking at the new silicon humans?
Stupid platform broke my thread.
