> What I disagree with is doomsday scenarios where they'll be the end of human civilization. The problem I have with this argument is that "the end of human civilization" is such a high bar that it's practically a tautology that it won't be met. WW2 didn't end the human civilization - it didn't even make a dent. In fact, if the Axis had won the war, conquered the rest of the world, and massacred everybody between Moscow and Shanghai, the human civilization still wouldn't have ended. So any talk about whether the civilization will end or not, ultimately doesn't mean much.
