Haha I have no idea! I agree the possibility space is huge. All I do know is that we don’t see any evidence of alien AIs around us, so they are a poor explanation as a great filter for other alien races (unless they kill those races and then for some reason kill themselves, too / decide to be non-expansionist every single time).
