Provided that AGI becomes smart enough without passing through the universe-destroying paperclip maximizer stage, one idea could be inventing a way for humanity to be, in some form, useful to the AGI, e.g. as a time-tested biological backup
A mutually beneficial relationship would be great! I have a hard time believing that the relationship would remain mutually beneficial over long time periods though.
Regarding the universe destroying part, it’s nice to know that half dark galaxies haven’t been discovered, at least not yet. By half dark I mean galaxies that are partially destroyed. That’s at least weak evidence that universe destroying AIs aren’t already in existence.
I wouldn’t call being kept as biological backup particularly beneficial for humanity, but it’s the only plausible way humanity being useful enough for a sufficiently advanced AGI I can currently think of.
Destroying the universe might just take long enough for AGI to evolve itself sufficiently to reconsider. I should have actually used “earth-destroying” instead in the answer above.
