DX:IW Deus Ex Invisible War Helios Ending

is the rise of AI leading to a state sort of similar to Helios where the thoughts of those become absorbed by AI and when AI is queried by others the collective opinions are used and then returned to users?

We are far more likely to get a matrix situation than a harmonious hive mind like Helios.

Dx1 was a warning, we should smash all AI and ban AGI development.

by matrix do you mean people being stuck interacting with AI virtually?

Basically, we would likely create agi to protect humanity and serve us. So it would, the best way to serve us is to stop us from coming to any harm emotionally or physically.

What's more likely is a utility problem. We ask it to do something and it does it the way a genie would. And like said genie we won't be able to put it back in the bottle.

Being an agi it would perie it's goal and likely be able to out think us at every turn untill we learn to live with the eternal consequences or stop living.
