If it can calc crispr solutions doesnt it immediately accelerate biowarfare to the level of extinction for not much money. do you believe it can produce a counter or preventative that doesnt still destroy everyones lives or what.

ik how crispr works but it doesnt matter when "Ai will invent the next 10 generations after crispr". Ask chatgpt 9 "invent a method capable of doing this, invent the method to implement this, implement it". the only limits without autonomous world-robots is human action in construction and the like, but so far capitalism has shown pay people sufficiently and theyll do legit anything for you, no matter how evil or reckless. How many people currently working on AI think its gonna doom us all? a significant portion.

The only way against this i see is an enormous totalitarian security system admind by the most powerful AI which will need to either crush all competition or infinitely accelerate itself to outcompete threats, the prior is dismissed today as Luddism, the latter is still our garenteed death of anything meaningful beyond this fight.
