I am a right wing Republican and this is the first thing I think I have ever vigorously agreed with Bernie Sanders on. AI is not just a threat to your job, it is a threat to your life. Read Superintelligence. Every time I point this out her

More people need to read "Superintelligence". Everyone talks about job losses risk, no one talks about human extinction risk.
