Sorry for a long reply, It looks like the outcome depends on the speed of technological enhancement and regulations. If the advantage of autofac grows faster than competitors can react (through violence, alliances, blockades), the system will collapse into a monopoly. I personally believe that there is a greater than 0.5 chance that autofac will not be bound by any laws or regulations, because:
1. We currently cannot handle even simple problems in alignment. 2. Outside of alignment too.
