Isn't that exactly how humans have been able to progress so far? By standing on the shoulders of others to reach higher and higher lofts?

If you don't want your knowledge to be used by machines or man, then you should bottle them up and hide them from both.

With an important distinction. No previous generation (obviously) tried to decide that we're done and it's the apes' turn now. I don't know if AGI is a near possibility or not, but if it is then it won't be our children who stand on the shoulders of giants anymore, will it ?

Not really, no. Humans progressed by building societies and rules. No society built on theft ever thrived.
