I think my counter is relatively straightforward. Economists have said that as of more or less today there has been zero impact from AI. Despite layoffs in tech. I don’t think we go from “no economic impact” to end of humanity in “the next few years”.
Did the economists’ analysis consider variables like AI-spurred layoffs / job displacement also influencing the metrics being considered? I suppose it would be very hard to do as it’s unclear what subset of layoffs were downstream effects of AI, and I’m sure if I, random guy on HN, thought of it, they, actual economists, surely would’ve too.
In any case, the economics of a doomsday device are likely quite unique, though economic impact as a proxy for intelligence is probably a fair way to approximate here…
Possibly, but more likely because of the ravaging weather events as gas powered data centers churn out more emissions in four years than the last fourty
Just say that you need the IPO money to build yourself a bunker.
If it was a true danger, then instead you would have supported pausing AI and an international governing body to halt the development globally (including China) right now.
But you didn't. Because someone needs to complete their grift first before dumping shares on retail investors.

>Unless there is AI regulation or a coordinated slowdown between labs, human extinction in the next few years seems very likely
Sigh, no explanation of how this would occur (even after multiple questions on that thread).
It's starting to sound like hot air and frankly tiresome. I want data worksheets.
It is bullsh*t.
