Yeah, but we have police, jails and armies to control human organizations when they try taking over the world. Which occasionally they do.

Will these checks and balances work against an adversary who doesn't have a brain to blow out? I don't know, and I don't think anyone else does.

Extremely rarely relative to their power, and relative to control over individuals. There is some regulation, and an occasional war to shatter a regime.
