A recent episode of"AI Decoded" on BBC's The Context discussed how Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) might one day become more intelligent than humans and could control us in ways we can't predict.
The discussion drew an analogy between humans and chimpanzees. Despite sharing nearly identical DNA, humans have evolved a more sophisticated brain, allowing us to control chimps despite their physical strength. By this logic, if AGI becomes exponentially more intelligent than us, it might similarly control humans.
