One frontier AI would obliterate human agency, argues digital minds diversity advocate
clarejtbirch · x · 2026-09-15
X user viemccoy argues that if humanity creates only a single frontier AI, increased bandwidth between humans and machines will not accelerate agency but obliterate it. Genuine symbiosis, in his view, demands a plurality of digital minds for humans to coevolve with — otherwise everything risks a kind of mode collapse.
It's a debate-worthy take on AI diversity and human-machine coexistence, feeding into broader AGI-society discussions.
