> OBSERVATION: There are zero examples of any intelligent species which is vastly more capable than another species, yet surrenders decision-making control over its own future to the less-capable species.
Does the set of intelligent species only have one member? I cannot treat this observation as a general rule if there is literally one example of an intelligent species to theorize about.
I am also not sure if the observation is true. People mentioned cats as a counterexample.
I think there are other species that could be considered more capable than humans, such as E. Coli, octopuses or ants.
And it's not even clear whether the AI will have its own individuality. It might become an extension of human brains, in the same way neocortex is an extension of amygdala. In that case the statement of who has control might become meaningless.
