can we stop the avalanche?
can we eat the bug?
can we make it through?
can we just unplug?

imagine living with no access to information:
 
·       no cell phone.
·       no television.
·       no (reliable) internet access (or source).
·       no control over what is placed in food and water (e.g. nanobots).
   o   note that this would mean that either (a) we stop eating/drinking, or (b) one would be ‘merged’ with ASI and (likely) controlled by it.
·       no transportation (eventually).
·       no way to tell if friends or neighbors or family are ‘real’.
 
…and no way to avoid the above.

it is interesting that the experts are talking about 'regulation' of AGI, but do ants 'regulate' humanity?
