I agree with you. People are worried that an AI might say "do a therac-25" but forget that it might also say "don't do a therac-25". I think it's averages out

I agree with you. People are worried that an AI might say "do a therac-25" but forget that it might also say "don't do a therac-25". I think it's averages out to neutral. Nobody bans Home Depot from selling a hammer because you might hit your thumb with it. We accept thumb injuries because even while people are out their thumb for a few days, society as a whole gets more work done with hammers than without. I think AI will probably find a similar role. Some idiot is going to make a bot that calls people and makes them buy it gift cards. Someone else will cure cancer. So it goes.
