it’s such a far fetched question, that it almost doesn’t matter
its not about whether this will ever happen which if it does i doubt it will be in our lifetime but more of a thought experiment of how such situation would go down
is there EVER a point where we are able to defend from an alien invasion
thats a good interesting question but a very different one

I’m enjoying thinking about it, but I just don’t understand the constraints you are interested in, or assuming. If all human labor is replaced, then I’m already envisioning what is in essence an entirely different planet. Resources would be gone, politics are reorganized around supporting and building this AI takeover, and then re-aligned again once there is free time. I’m thinking of what is the cost of that — are we spread out on multiple planets, and on earth no one works? Is it some dystopian earth with the humans left there having nothing to do? Is it a utopian future, where humans have all the free time in the world, and we had did figure out how to solve the resource problem. I’m not trying to deflect your question or not answer, I’m actually really trying to answer it and consider things but see an AI takeover completely tied up in a whole host of other issues. I’ll read through the other comments and see what others are thinking. Thanks for the thought-game for this Sunday though :)
