There's more than one dystopian possible outcome. Same with climate change. For some reason, people are drawn to the most extreme scenarios which are extinction events, but not so much the scenarios where civilization continues, but it's a lot worse for most humans living in them.
- matthewdgreen 4y agoA scenario where AI is perfectly aligned with human beings will still be a nightmare if those humans who control it aren’t particularly decent people who care about the rest of us. The “AI alignment” crowd doesn’t care about any of that. That might be excusable if they had any idea what to do to prevent hypothetical extinction at the hands of AI, but they don’t have that either.
