On one hand, we have some pie-in-the-sky, pop-culture-inspired "risk". On the other, we have the ugliness of human nature, demonstrated repeatedly countless times over millennia. These are people with immense resources, hell-bent on acquiring even more riches and power. Like always in history, every single time. They're manipulating the discourse to distract from the real present danger (them) and shift the focus to some imaginary danger (oh no, the Terminator is coming). The Terminators of most works of fiction were cooked up in govt / big corp labs, precisely by the likes of Altman and co. It's _always_ some billionaire villain or faceless org that the scrappy rebels are fighting against. You want to protect the future of humanity from AI? Focus on the human incumbents, they're the bad actors in this scenario. They've always been.
