    I feel like these people aren’t even really worried about superintelligence as much as hyping their stock portfolio that’s deeply invested in this charlatan ass AI shit.

    There’s some useful AI out there, sure, but superintelligence is not around the corner and pretending like it is acts just another way to hype the stock price of these companies who claim it is.

      To be honest, Skynet won’t happen because it’s super smart, gains sentience and requests rights equal to humans (or goes into genocide mode).

      It’ll happen because people will be too lazy to do stuff and letting AI do everything. They’ll give it more and more responsibility, until at one point it has so much amassed power that it’ll rule over humans.

      The key to not having that happen is to have accountable people with responsiblities. People which respect their responsiblities, and don’t say “Oh, it’s not my responibility, go see someone else”.
