summary
Argument says future AI danger is constrained by physical limits not runaway cognition so practical defenses focus on hardware and resources rather than philosophy. Cites historical attack model Black Death killed 60% of Europe and recent engineering pressure from a specialized Google chip used for Go to show compute and energy bottlenecks. Recommends design patterns from hardware: limits on self-replication and energy access, layered trust boundaries, kill switches, and restricting grid or fuel access.
