Ai doomerism

When ancient humans stared into the darkness, they imagined monsters. Today, staring into the future, AI is the monster.
-- Johnny Thomson, 2023forbes.com
It's a symbiotic relationship: AI doomers need AI hype in order to be taken seriously and be part of the discourse, and AI hypers need AI doom narratives for AI to look momentous and world-altering.
-- François Chollet @fchollet, Twitter, 2023.twitter.com
[Pedro Domingos in reply to Chollet:] Not really. It's a parasitic relationship: AI doom needs AI hype, otherwise there's nothing to worry about, but not the reverse.

 Nothing works better than this doomer-hyper symbiosis of AI. Because the public "understands" it from decades of sci-fi entertainment.
