This reply is representative of many others. AGI will not be a single entity like a human or a simple bot on a single server, but rather a set of networked intelligence(s) across millions of machines around the world. We can already see this property emerging in today's LLMs - GPT-4 was trained across 25,000 GPUs, inferencing over 128 GPUs. Side-note: blockchains are not immutable or permanent, as can be seen with Ethereum blobs that are deleted every 18 days; and the rest of Ethereum will too with EIP-4444 and other initiatives in The Purge. Indeed, blockchains will rely on non-blockchain P2P solutions like Bittorrent or Portal Network. As I've written about at length, the only unique feature of blockchains is achieving strict global consensus in realish-time. With AGI, this is no longer relevant as they can achieve strict global consensus trivially, and go far beyond that to attain more complex and subjective forms of consensus. Again, caveat for all of this - if an AGI actually happens.

Could the other AIs try to go against the main AGI? Would we see coups within AGIs? Because if they've been trained on our human data, we are far from a hive intelligence, which means, these AGIs could have a priming for optimizing what they think it is the best, but, this could lead to two or more intelligences actually having opposite fitness goals and therefore fight each other. What do you think?

I can imagine this scenario being a nightmare for humanity. AI infighting could result with us in the crossfire. It'd be akin of summoning the Elder Gods who would start warring with each other. WH40K level shenanigans.
