I don't think having just one Western AGI project would work. It would fail for the same reasons the Soviet Union collapsed. Planned economies, also known as command economies, can fail for a number of reasons, including inefficient resource distribution, lack of compettion, and inflexible planning. These shortcomings limit innovation and adaptability. The collapse of the Soviet Union is often seen as a failure of the planned economy concept. In the same way, centralizing AGI development in a single project would only stifle innovation and create vulnerabilities that could hinder progress.

Isn't this what CCP's been doing all along? In China, individuals vie for higher education and status by regurgitating Xi's communist bullshits all day long, starting from the tender age of 7. It's a system where compliance and repetition are rewarded, not genuine understanding or critical thinking.

Is this what you mean/want?

But what do you mean by "average people" here? Many feel like AI safety folks are no more than just power hungry parasites with no real capacity to bring any real value to the ongoing AI development.
