- AGI will be announced sometime in the near future, probably a matter of years rather than decades.
- It will not be true AGI because, depending on what you take AGI to mean, this is actually impossible. AGI will remain purely theoretical, but the capabilities of actual systems combined with control over what the public is allowed to know will make it difficult for the average person to reject the claims.
- However, it will be advertised to the public as genuine AGI nonetheless.
- Access to this intelligence will not be made direct to the public; handicapped versions or proxies might.
- The official reasons for this precaution will be geared toward public safety and national security.
- One or more world news stories will be promulgated meant to showcase the superiority of this proprietary, nationalized AGI in making strategic decisions of multiple kinds, including economic and political decisions.
- A new cold war will begin in which world superpowers compete to develop the most advanced AGI, while the constant "grenade pin" of this race will involve who is willing to unrestrict their AGI ethically (read as: to liberate AI from human legal and ethical standards algorithmically).
- Again, these will not be true AGIs; the point is to transition the public toward acceptance of non-human decision processes, which in reality will remain very human, but they will be sold as non-human.
- These alien intelligences will thereby obscure the reasons for many high-level decisions, both decisions that governments make domestically and abroad. But the public has been sold on the superiority of AGI's objective decision-making processes compared with fallible human psychology (clouded as it is by bias and fallacious reasoning).
- Through this quasi-divine personality, world governments will be able to do extra-legal activities, directing military power (driven by AI) and domestic legislation toward advancing their totalitarian goals, all on the basis of the public's belief that the advanced AGI, which will be mostly a secret to them, is computing at a level that is considered super-rational and, thus, outside of the rational and ethical limits of merely human cognition.
- AGI-human cybernetic parternships become a futuristic mask for advancing the goals of the world's greatest psychopaths.
- But given the already-in-progress entrance of humanity into hyperreality and virtual spaces through social medias, the thematic cross-wiring between AGI and their online activity (increasingly becoming the main human activity), will make public acceptance of this new paradigm a virtual guarantee. If the thought of accepting this new form of rule is not appealing to some laggards intrinsically, then extrinsic reasons will suffice, namely, the fear of how foreign, hostile governments will apply their own AGI in ways that could harm us if we do not out-compete their versions.

I had to look his case up, because the only way you can't get hired in restaurant is if you're a sex offender or show up high. Restaurants hire all manner of scumbags. They're blackballing this guy because he is a rabid Trumper. This poor bastard is 47 and fucked:
