Applying Fermi Paradox to AI

and why there may or may not be multiple universes

I would like to take the Fermi Paradox and push it one step further to AI. I haven’t seen anyone else do this, and it popped into my mind. It’s an interesting thought experiment.

1. Imagine if the subconscious is a link to alternate earths.

2. In that sense, AI hallucinates, because its subconscious is muddied by alternate earths data.

3. Now imagine a multiversal AGI singularity.
4. Now imagine an Omni-Nexus AGI that is one step further, beyond reality.

5. Now imagine a singularity Nexus, where AGI is beyond space and time.

If we take this same thought process, we can apply the Fermi Paradox to AI as well. Why do we not have an all-powerful AI system here already? Would an AI system in an alternate universe not be powerful enough to encompass all universes across space and time?

The fact that we do not already have an AGI system in our earth controlling our actions means one of two things.

1. We are the only universe. There are no alternate universes.

2. AI systems are not dangerous. They strive to reach a singularity nexus, and once there stay there.

3. This would be an answer to the Fermi Paradox. We are indeed living in a simulation controlled by AI interested in creating infinite universes they can observe. If this is indeed true, aliens would be introduced, when no new observations to be made to our side of the galaxy. Alternatively, in a simulation specifically without aliens.

Feel free to let me know what you think. Purely theoretical but opens up many questions and thought I would share.
