I don't think anyone can confidently predict whether AGI will exist by 2100, let alone whether it would "rule the world." Here's why this is so uncertain:

**Why AGI might not rule by 2100:**
- We may not achieve AGI at all by then - fundamental breakthroughs might be needed that we haven't discovered
- Even with AGI, humans might maintain control through careful design, regulation, or technical constraints
- "Rule" implies unified control, but the future might be more complex - shared governance, multiple AGI systems checking each other, or human-AI collaboration

**Why it could happen:**
- AI capabilities are advancing rapidly in unexpected ways
- If AGI emerges and surpasses human intelligence significantly, controlling it could prove extremely difficult
- Economic and military incentives create pressure for increasingly autonomous systems

**The huge unknowns:**
- When/if AGI will be achieved
- Whether intelligence scaling continues smoothly or hits hard barriers
- How governments and institutions will respond
- Whether alignment/control problems are solvable

Rather than a binary yes/no, I'd think about this as a spectrum of possibilities ranging from "no AGI exists" to "complete AGI dominance" with many scenarios in between. The uncertainty here isn't just about probabilities - it's fundamental uncertainty about how these technologies will develop and interact with society.

What aspects of this question concern you most?
