The case for controlling Natural "Superagents" (instead of Artificial "Superintelligences") (youtu.be)

tl;dr:

We worry incessantly about intelligence (in machines and aliens), but intelligence is merely the ability to create models of the world. Agency, or the ability to act on behalf of yourself, and influence the world and others around you, is more problematic. Musk is not a Superintelligence but he is a "Superagent".

Elon is not the first Superagent, nor will he be the last. But with the increasing wealth gap in our societies, the likelihood of rogue chaotic Superagents causing havoc in our governing systems (that were not built to be agent-proof), will increase.
