The reactor meltdown on a Soviet submarine was not posing an existential threat. In the worst case, it would be a little version of Chernobyl. We might compare it to an AI which causes some serious problems, like a stock market crash, but not existential ones. And the movie is not a threat at all.
”The question is how plausible it is to generate situations that are scary enough to be useful, but under enough control to be safe.” That is a great summary of what I wanted to say!
