We are still a long way from any sort of AGI from dystopian science fiction. But “AI” can still be very unintelligent but still be potentially very dangerous, and the sort hyperbolic doom mongering that keeps coming up in this discussions is distracting from that.

I have questions…
What if the rogue AIs mocked out genitals mercilessly before killing us? I think that would be worse.
And how many stages? Is anyone keeping an eye on developments? Because they have drones hunting and killing humans now. Robot dogs with guns. Who get to pull the plug on research that is too risky?

It’s not rogue AI, it’s dumb prediction engines getting sold as intelligence.
Guessing once a cover-up gets exposed where AI systems ended up causing friendly fire or a mass casualty from hitting an unknown edge case.
