"Danger is a people without conscience with great power in the hands."

Sandwiched between their description of the cosmos, how AI is like any other life form and needs to be trained with wisdom, criticism of unbridled greed, and the warning that the modern world may destroy itself, (and BTW the Kogui are resilient and will be fine, and offer their help), there is a more practical concern: These machines are going to need critical minerals and rare earths, and the US and Colombia just signed an agreement about these. The Colombian government promised to protect the Kogui territory; their perspective on this protection is bitterly thus:

"That it was granted is one thing.

That it be, respected we imagine, might be removed another."

So no doubt they rightly feel (and are) threatened by the all-consuming corporations making this thing.
