AIs seem to be currently on track to become essentially somewhat smarter weird artificial humans (weakly aligned to humanity in a way similar to how actual humans are aligned to each other), at which point they might be able to take seriously and eventually solve ambitious alignment when advancing further to superintelligence (so that it’s aligned to them, not to us). There will be a lot of them and they will be in a position to take over the future (Duvenaud’s interview is good fluency-building fodder for this framing), so they almost certainly will. And they won’t be giving 10% or even 1% to the future of humanity just because we were here first and would prefer this to happen.
