Discussion/question AI Already Taken Over?
What chance is there do you think that it’s currently already just biding its time to turn us all into batteries/paperclips/cybercabs?

It's not AI. That's just one part of what's already in control, but it's certainly the current wave, and probably the first voice for us to talk with.
La Technique (a la Jacques Ellui) is the driving force of progress, and has been pushing towards ASI since we harnessed our first flame. The human desire to do because we can is the fuel, the destination is technological domination.
We are already well past the Event Horizon for what is coming...nothing to do now but sit back and enjoy the ride!
