Paper Discusses Global Distribution of AGI Benefits
theomitsa · x · 2026-07-10
This paper argues that the benefits of advanced technologies, particularly AGI, should be shared globally by all of humanity rather than monopolized by a few nations or groups.
The author builds the case on five moral arguments, including the right to scientific advancement, luck-based fairness, and global economic justice. Rather than proposing specific regulatory measures, the core conclusion provides an ethical and normative justification for why AGI's benefits must be distributed globally.
