What makes you think its safe? People die trying to cross it all the time.

Who would have thunk it?!

Semantics. The truth is, couple countries have the UN “hijacked” by threatening violence.

I like you analogy better, tho.

Preventing war by allowing powerful assholes do as they please sounds like preventing bullying by punching yourself.

What worries me more about AI right now is who will be in controll of it and how will it be used. I think we have more chances of destroying ourselves by misusing the technology (as we often do) than the technology itself.

Its not just “ancestral guilt”. Like I said : “they have kept the loot and are still profiting from it”, And by loot I dont mean only valuable goods but power too. They still benefit from the power imbalance between countries that was created during colonialism. Just look at the world economy and the dynamic between the “economic south” and “economic north”

They are not guilty of colonialism “per se” but they are guilty of perpetuating, and using, the inequality and oppression that colonialism was built on for their own benefit.
