Interesting that this conversation started with comparisons to the printing press, comic books, and D&D, and has progressed to comparisons to World War 2. Of course, panic about World Wars is certainly what I was referring to originally...
- haswell 3y agoTo be fair, I specifically called out the printing press, comic books, and D&D as examples of panics we got wrong. The other side of this coin is that there are indeed cases where concerns were justified, and only focusing on the situations when they were not justified is at the heart of the issue.
- cubefox 3y agoThis didn't start out with comic books, we started with AI risk and people dismissing it by arbitrarily comparing it to things that turned out to be harmless.
