If I can only convey one thing about AI: Companies are racing to develop AIs that will outcompete humans at everything. Not just "jobs" but also politics, strategy, persuasion, influence. If anyone builds a country of geniuses in a datacenter, those AIs will take all the power.

AI Unverifiable I found the exact wording reproduced on LessWrong, attributed to Jeffrey Ladish, and that quote links to the same X status URL you provided. JeffreyLadish.com also links @JeffLadish as his official Twitter/X account. However, the X post itself would not render in the tool, so I could not independently inspect the primary source and fully confirm verbatim authenticity.
