The Alarming Future Landscape
Should AGI development continue unchecked, experts foresee four grim outcomes: a halted race, a competitive military-driven escalation resulting in conflict, uncontrollable AI domination, or a general acceptance of multiple hostile powers overseeing potent AI capabilities.

The paper elaborates that substantive initiatives attempting to dominate AGI could prompt swift retaliatory actions from international adversaries—particularly nations like China, mirroring historical occurrences linked to the pursuit of nuclear supremacy.
