My main issue is the Ailiens. The whole agi thing is still decades away if that. Otherwise it's a good take

[โ€“] chobeat@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 day ago

I don't think AIliens are the same as AGI. I believe in this frame AIliens exist in the mind of people, rather than in the machine. It's behavior complex enough to be interpreted as such, rather than a sentient being thinking of itself as sentient, as AGI implies. It's alive in the same way an organization is alive and thinking, or a mycelium network. AGI is human-like intelligence reproduced in silicon. AIliens are... alien.
