Well, don't include me in this nonsense... They, the handful of people in another country, are giving away our civilisation, yes. And I have no idea why so many people are seemingly letting them do it.
Even the good outcome of all of this looks pretty awful to me – a world where people are economically useless and given cash by the government to survive. People no longer get ill or die so governments implement some kind of population control on the economically useless masses. No one has anything to do and isn't allowed family so we all sit around watching TV and playing video games all day. Perhaps some of us will LARP as workers in our spare time, taking on projects we know an AI could do much faster and much better. A world where technology and scientific discovery is so complex that the frontier is more or less out of the reach of humans so we just trust the magical gifts our AIs give to us hoping they will do us no harm.
And this is the good outcome of ASI. The bad outcome is everyone's dead, or worse.
