There are two opposing hypotheses regarding the future of AI.
One is optimistic, where AI leads us to a Star Trek-like society, and the other is pessimistic, where humanity is extinguished or co-opted by this technology. I believe that it will evolve not as a single agent, but as an ecosystem. Instead of a global brain that concentrates power, I see a network of diverse models, like a digital jungle, and as in any ecosystem, there will be dominant species, but there will also be "biodiversity", and I mean both organic and inorganic varieties. The signs are already visible: small, specialized models, decentralized federated architectures, cross-audits between AIs. A clear trend emerges from these signs: AI is fragmenting and distributing itself. It looks more like biodiversity than a monolith. The scenarios that are opening up are clear:
𑁋 Conflicts and chaos between AIs.
𑁋 An ecosystem with diversity, yes, but dominated by a few corporations, with AI systems that monitor each other and compete for control or evasion.
𑁋 Digital ecologies with their own languages and emerging micro-economies.

What is clear is that the history of humanity will be divided into two periods: before and after AI.
