Note you could make this exact claim when people were racing to build large particle accelerators. You don’t have evidence that AGI will cause such extinction, just it is a possibility. Same way an accelerator could cause black holes or vacuum collapse.
People could, and people did. We went ahead with particle accelerators because we had a lot of people with relevant expertise soberly assess the risks and concluded with high confidence that they were safe to run.
We had strong causal evidence particle accelerators wouldn’t cause extinction. Where’s the equivalent for AGI?
terrible news, sucks to see even more people speedrunning the extinction of everything of value.
reminder that if you destroy everything first you don’t gain anything. everything is just destroyed earlier.

you used to be so much more interesting before you fell into the “quit trying to safety” conversation pattern mode collapse
