Humanity coordinates to prevent the creation of potentially-unsafe AIs.
There was an alignment breakthrough allowing humanity to successfully build an aligned AI.
One person (or a small group) takes over the world and acts as a benevolent dictator.
Multiple competing AIs form a stable equilibrium keeping each other in check.
At a sufficient level of intelligence, goals converge towards not wanting to harm other creatures/intelligences.
There's a fundamental limit to intelligence that isn't much higher than human level.
High intelligence isn't enough to take over the world on its own, so the AI needs to work with humanity in order to effectively pursue its own goals.
Building GAI is impossible because human minds are special somehow.
