The thing is that the people who are predicting doom are the same people who think chatbots are going to grow up to be a real boy. Same people who say space data centers and Mars outposts.

One can predict doom and not be part of the PR. I just think we're the core part of the doom, not (necessarily) some AGI that comes out of this. We've shown we're good at getting ourselves close to extinction with simpler tools.
