I'm not an optimist, but I fail to see the dangers of AI. I think it's more likely we will be wiped out by nuclear war, or climate change, or the collapse of biodiversity and ecosystems that result in worldwide famines, before AI is advanced enough to constitute any kind of threat to our existence.
- randcraw 2y agoThe dangers are not in AI, per se. Like nuclear fission and fusion, the danger is in how the technology 1) may be misused by corporations that are clueless to or disinterested in the damage it can inflict, and 2) surely will be dis-regulated by the increasingly stupid and malignant boobs infecting Washington.
