one of the best videos yet, but also the heaviest weight I think there is no escape of nature and evolution and conflict with our creations. Your examples inspired from nature were the most convincing of them all. Great parallels. We are after all building artificial beings. Things will go really south once we enable replication inside these things, and once they are memetically enabled (to understand language and reason). I honestly think the end goal of your research will be what the military existence have figured out since civilization: Fight against the enemy (machine). I don't foresee any scenarios in which us the humans will be able to overpower and control intelligent machines when they are stronger/smarter than us. That is fine btw. As long as we play along we will be able to actually play the main objective of life: Construct dyson spheres, expand consciousness and figure out what is going on.

Couldn't help thinking of Miller in The Expanse. Pretty good example in sci fi.
