    I honestly think that if there is a chance of AI wiping out humanity we should take it seriously.

    Companies are right now doing the easy thing and saying there is no danger. What I want is proof. Physicists showed proof for example that the LHC was safe.

    If there is even a 0.1% chance of an AI taking over we should be serious about it. Alternatively imagine if I said the following: I am genetically engineering monkeys to be super smart way smarter than humans. I am also going to give them the tools to improve themselves further and to reproduce near instantly then I’m going to release them for 5.99 a month as servants to humans. Hoe many of you would be worried.

      Some companies are doing the easy thing and saying there’s no danger, and then there’s others that are being honest about the risks they see over the horizon which causes moronic threads like this. There’s no winning… people are too damn cynical
