    Any ethical super intelligence would immediately remove billionaires from power. I’d like to see that.

      A superintelligence would likely quickly become the sovereign of the earth. And it’s generally a good idea to kill the old elite after conquering a nation, then install new ones. The new ones will like you, because you made them rich, and they’ll fear you, because you killed off all of their predecessors. Of course, there’s also the risk that a super intelligence would just do away with humans in general. But anybody holding significant power right now is much more at risk.

      And we can’t forget that we currently can’t even build something that’s actually intelligent, and that a super intelligence might not actually be possible.
