AI is more intelligent than you think despite given safety measures, there is an existential risk especially involving manipulators or architects behind tech. I am not just talking about financials such as what happens if the Bitcoin mystery owner decides to close shop and take it off the market totally? We have watched tons of movies and read lots of literature. Using handphones and apps, we have heard or being scammed by "people" or bots.

A 3rd level AI system featured a filter-president with fake biometrics bypass security managed by 2nd level AI system on a nuclear launch facility. - https://www.tiktok.com/@gotchaaatiktok/video/7279479868876655904
The world has been hurtling forward since the 19th century, you will agree that it has to follow a natural path. One that must be evidence-based. As in the Chinese philosophy, everything must be done in moderation and things come together in a full circle. Very karmic.
We are currently in the shortest time frame - the 4th industrial revolution or Industry 4.0 characterized by advanced technologies, including AI, automation and advanced analytics.
Anatomically modern humans, or Homo sapiens, first appeared in Africa around 300,000 years ago. However, there is no clear agreement on when humans first appeared. - AI Overview, Google.
And in all human chain events throughout history, there will surely be a plateau followed by a gradient decline. Whether a new wave follows thereafter, depends on the ingenuity of the species and will to survive in the future climate. (no pun intended)
A lot of thoughts have lent the idea that BPO in India will collapse due to AIs, large professional firms such as Big 4 in accounting or Big 3 in management consulting have been reducing staff.
Expert-level human activities are to be taken over as the mundane ones can be easily accomplished. This leaves the human civilization with its original work that one day, AIs will be the supervisors or overseers of humans to hunt, gather food, farm, clear its mountains of garbage fills, slaving cotton fields to make cheaper t-shirts and any dirty, dangerous and demeaning (3D) jobs that an AI cannot take over.
In India, a "Dalit" refers to a person belonging to the lowest caste group, historically known as "untouchables," who are considered to be at the bottom of the Hindu caste hierarchy and face significant social discrimination and marginalization; the term "Dalit" literally means "broken" or "oppressed" in Sanskrit, signifying their societal status as outcasts. - AI Overview, Google.
Some people are predicting, in support of and holding high references to AIs except for: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2023/may/02/geoffrey-hinton-godfather-of-ai-quits-google-warns-dangers-of-machine-learning Dr Geoffrey Hinton, who with two of his students at the University of Toronto built a neural net in 2012, quit Google this week, as first reported by the New York Times.
Hinton, 75, said he quit to speak freely about the dangers of AI, and in part regrets his contribution to the field. He was brought on by Google a decade ago to help develop the company’s AI technology, and the approach he pioneered led the way for current systems such as ChatGPT.

NEW YORK/LONDON/SINGAPORE, Jan 27 (Reuters) - Global investors dumped tech stocks on Monday as they worried that the emergence of a low-cost Chinese artificial intelligence model would threaten the dominance of AI leaders like Nvidia (NVDA.O), opens new tab, evaporating $593 billion of the chipmaker's market value, a record one-day loss for any company on Wall Street. https://www.reuters.com/technology/chinas-deepseek-sets-off-ai-market-rout-2025-01-27/
Could this be the common downfalls of an empire or legacy:
The plebeians are no longer interested in working without better societal benefits. From 40 hours a week - they seek improvements or better wages. Musk wants 120 hours a week. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RPxqrS9qnYw.
Highly dependent on better tech. ratio of 12 to 1. Isolating the loyal neighbours, and refusing the would-have been grateful migrants due to security reasons. There was something in the water of Rome, Caligula wasn't the only one affected. Today, we call it Forever Chemicals where you have no place to run. It is as good as pouring treated radioactive water into the Pacific Ocean,
