There's a whole lot of references in this to working on AI to prevent bad AI. but what does that actually mean in the context of something that's already so expensive to build and run and already running amuck in large corporations far beyond the scope of any one developer or any group of preppers or even someone like Elon Musk, who also can't do much except warn about it? (Unless we're to take these brain implants as a serious attempt to upgrade humans in time, which just seems silly on the grounds that cyborg implants are probably the first thing an AGI would worm into).
I do appreciate this post as a kinda calm, reasonable attempt to cool some of the hysterics... but as OP mentioned it's practically just as applicable to people who are letting their decisions be made by climate catastrophe or nuclear war. In that sense it's actually unhelpful that it's so focused on AI.
