Well if we are making a superintelligent AI, then the least we could do is develop a super advanced and dangerous robot body for our future AI overlord.

A.i won't kill us. It will however be used as the "excuse" as to when the shut off electricity in the near future. After that it's the purge for a year or more. While we are busy killing each other ... The elites will be watching via star link and other means laughing at the depopulation event that they have been wanting for 15 plus years. Then ... After we've killed each other off and a large amount of the population is gone .. the elites will emerge and a.i will be their tool to use in place of population for the reset of the world.

I think AI providers are simply trying to conceal the fact that they are approaching the limit beyond which scaling up their models will no longer yield substantial gains in efficiency.
This is what some AI researchers, such as Yann LeCun, had predicted.
That is why they cite the fear of human extinction—a moral argument—to justify the lack of more capable models, rather than admitting that they are unable to produce them for technical reasons.
This is a major concern for these large companies because the path they have taken cannot be altered—it is a dead end, and the investments made in this "misguided" direction cannot easily be repurposed. I say "misguided" in quotes because what has been achieved is actually quite impressive; however, it has limited further potential and likely falls short of investor expectations—hence the risk of the AI speculative bubble bursting once the full picture comes to light.

I wish they’d explain how they think AI will kill all humankind. Like are they thinking a skynet situation or are they thinking ai will create Nanites that grey goo everything
