AGI isn't just a tool though, it's theoretically an intelligent entity that could have its own agenda. Armed with intelligence far superior to any human, this is a potential threat. Should we not tightly control it? I know chat gpt is FAR from achieving AGI, but ethics are definitely something that will need to be addressed as the tech develops.

The conversation was about ChatGPT and not about AGI.

If AGI is an intelligent entity far superior to humans, you can but control it. It is far more intelligent than us and instead it will control us

Given what humankind did to itself and it surroundings maybe this is a good thing.

No disagreement on the last bit. Part of me thinks humanity deserves to be selected for extinction, and our legacy will be artificial life destined to seed the galaxy with its own progeny. Seems like a fitting end doesn't it?
