I still casually believe AI doomerism is valid, but it will rear its head in more depressing, incompetent ways:
- a broken AI market will cause another financial collapse via bubble
- broken AI products will get access to the wrong mission critical civil system, or at least a part of that call chain, and there will be some devastating loss. It won’t matter though, because it won’t affect the billionaire class.
- we’ll never achieve an actually singularity based on a superintelligence, but we’ll get AI weapons. Those AI weapons will be in the hands of sociopathic autocrats who view mankind in terms of what can be taken.
My general view is that we’re on the worst possible timeline and mankind has reverted back to our primate ancestry to make decisions: biggest strongest monkey wins. There is only law of jungle. Ook ook.
