It looks like the tide has quickly turned and the AI doomers (who were mostly just in it for personal gain) overplayed their hand and are now being roundly mocked. I've seen a lot more posts and articles dismissing them and advocating sanity in the last 24 hours, after the silly deluge of "extinction" or whatever they were on about. It almost looks like another mini mass psychosis.

- version_five 3y agoThat seems to be the playbook. Anyone who doesn't think the sky is falling and we all need to surrender power to our betters is a denier (or denialist, whatever that suffix does). I wonder how long that will continue to work.
- lostmsu 3y ago> we all need to surrender power to our betters Huh? Who even thinks that? Power or no power to our betters is mostly inconsequential in comparison to the chance of AI taking the top place on the intelligence podium. Somehow if that is actually coming I don't see how "betters" could do anything about it.
