These articles almost always have a "except for me and my friends" implication. The author always implicitly sees themselves as above all the vulnerable people and they must paternally protect them by restricting their access to the dangerous technology. "We're not ready" isn't a relevant statement because it's here/coming no matter what you do. If you want to say, "here's how we get ready", I'm all ears.
