I didn’t read everything, but just flagging that there are also AI researchers, such as Francois Chollet to name one example, who believe that even the most capable AGI will not be powerful enough to take over. On the other side of the spectrum, we have Yud believing AGI will weaponize new physics within the day. If Chollet is a bit right, but not quite, and the best AI possible is just able to take over, than control approaches could actually stop it. I think control/defence should not be written off even as a final solution.
