Afghanistan has been truly screwed by the rest of the world. Invaded by Soviet Union (>a million killed) and the U.S (hundreds of thousands killed), left to the Taliban and a revolving door ofleaders who don't care about the people (including puppets installed by others), destroyed by sanctions and economic warfare, and reeling from long-term underdevelopment due to all the wars.
Refugees who left the nation have even been forced back to Afghanistan by neighbouring countries. And, on top of everything: earthquakes, natural disasters, and exposure to climate change (warming at twice the global average, despite causing negligible overall emissions).
Utter madness that $1 trillion was spent on a war but the entire world can't cobble together enough to feed the people.
I personally don't believe AGI exists, and I'm doubtful it will exist in the near future, but it's difficult to believe that rule by AGI could be worse than rule by a seemingly endless supply of corrupt, sadistic, demented, amoral sociopathic humans.
