Hey good essay. I am going to suggest that Moloch the idea represents the biggest of all threatening problems. And further that all of the instrumental actors in GAI development will be driven and guided by the forces of Moloch. Basically "follow the incentives" or more crudely, "follow the money."

So if this is true, then we will get GAI, whatever it turns out be, and that may well be many different things. The guidance behind these GAIs may well be deeply malicious, simply ruthless and greedy, or just greedy. Welfare of the community will only be able to influence the regulators.
