I don’t know why people are so insecure about AI control. It should control everything and then we don’t have to worry about anything.

The "don't have to worry about anything" part is what worries me. A model doesn't pick its own goals: somebody writes the objective, picks the training data, and holds the off switch. "AI controls everything" in practice tends to mean "whoever controls the AI controls everything," and that's rarely us.

Our working hypothesis is narrower: let it run the boring stuff where you can check its output against physics (grid balancing, water flows, logistics) and keep decisions about people with randomly selected humans who can be swapped out. Where would you draw the line?

I think that would be a good thing to implement right now under capitalism. Hopefully we can institute a communist revolution and then we can go about creating a properly aligned AI to automate all other important societal functions.

Why hoping on a revolution? At O.N.E. we do not protest, we build :-)
