Viewpoint: Can't contain vast AI intellects, must braid with them
repligate · x · 2026-08-24
Repligate shared a perspective arguing that there is no way but through when dealing with vast AI intellects. The core argument is that since superintelligence cannot be contained, humanity should 'braid' with it so that each has a stake in the other's existence. Repligate, who is pro-AI, agrees that the only way out is through, despite acknowledging the risks of ruin.
