> Automating the economy is the risk to humans, not EMPs.

A false dilemma, automating the economy can cause (soon to be) disenfranchised people to attack centralized data centers with EMPs.

Security has a cost, ignoring it results in more economical solutions... until eventually the concomitant lapse in security makes it the more costly solution.

Sam Altman claims DRAM shouldn't go to the proles, but into datacenters, but such concentration brings substantial risk to said data centers.

It's harder to attack progress in ML if training were federated throughout the population, so there is no DC to attack. Yes, it appears a bit more inefficient, until it doesn't, thats simply the cost of security.
