Honestly I find these cavalier statements to be in incredibly poor taste. Unless you are completely blind it's obvious that AI is the most significant piece of technology invented since the Atomic Bomb and could very well be the most important thing ever built by Humans full stop. This kind of dismissive attitude is childish and will likely lead to incredibly bad outcomes for humanity.

    I’m on HN almost every day advocating for a complete ban of the technology because of its risks and externalities…

      Then why are we arguing? I agree with you, I'm highlighting the fact that people making light of the technology is dangerous

        I’m not the one arguing, I asked you if your comment was satire. I agree with the sibling comment, it reads like AI religious worshipping

The atomic bomb destroyed cities and changed the face of war. The launch video for Astra has 'can upload a photo to Ebay' as a highlight.
