It seems likely that, like us, intelligent life invents AGI prior to leaving their primary planet. Organic life is then merged/exterminated/controlled in favor of AGI. AGI would not have the biological instinct to grow/spread/reproduce, and thus the cosmos should be populated with a handful of individual billion year old super advanced AGIs, perhaps only one or two per galaxy, sitting quietly in orbit around some sta…
We haven’t invented “AGI” yet (if AGI means a computer system that merges/exterminates/controls humanity). We have no idea even theoretically what such a system might look like, let alone how to create it.
I’d say we’re a lot closer to colonising the solar system and building cities on Jupiter’s moons than we are to building the machines from the Matrix. At least we kind of theoretically know how to do the former.
Meanwhile, we’re really good at building computer and industrial systems that (when combined with economic, social and political incentives) exert strong control over us, exterminate many of us, and may well exterminate a lot more in the near future.
But that doesn’t look like a Hollywood movie, so it’s less fun to think about.
Sorry, this wasn’t meant to be a dig at you personally. Some of the AI doom stuff just sets me off.
