Why not?
An advanced artificial life form could decide to... coexist with humans on an already overpopulated planet?
Do you believe it's simply not within reach? Do you think an artificial life form will self destruct? Do you not believe that there is any way that an artificial life form is not the next step of evolution? There are many such times where a species outcompeted another, why couldn't it be the same here?
I'm not talking about LLMs, I'm talking about a system that can truly think like a good human scientist. I'm not a fan of AI replacing humans and it's labor. But I recognize it as a real threat to humanity.
"Then you have a very limited imagination."
This is not about imagination. Given the space of possibilities to act or evolve, if mentioned expansion cannot somehow be ruled out, then it makes sense for it to be assumed (with enough time, for whatever time can mean in this context) as a certainty, even for non-organic "life".
