AGI is not software

on the small chance that the four billionaires who currently have near-exclusive control of closed sota models, (that is altman, amodei, zuckerberg and musk), are not fleecing their investors and actually build AGI, closed source leaves a choice of powerful government or powerful oligopoly/monarchy.

further explanation of this list:

musk - structural command

zuckerberg - structural command

altman - de facto command after purging rivals and privatisation, loyalty of personnel

amodei - influential, could potentially overthrow current governance
