Who, exactly, is "an advanced society" in this scenario? VCs deciding they don't like money after all? AI lab leaders and workers who spent their entire lives pursuing this dream, only to suddenly give it up because of some cultist doomers? The government growing the right combination of authoritarian and competent enough to put the tooth paste back in the tube somehow?

Goverment should intervene when the few are harming the many.
We do not seem to live in an advanced society, so in the end it's going to be riots and dictatorship by AI owners or perhaps no humans in control at all. Let's hope the worst does not happen this AI cycle and we get riots and slop only...
