I’m pretty happy with this article… though one of my concerns is that the section on how exactly AI could wipe out humanity was a bit short. It wants to cure cancer, it kills all humans, okay, but a reader might just think “well this is easy, tell it not to harm humans.” I’d have liked if the article had at least hinted at why the problem is more difficult.
Still, all in all, this could have been much worse.

Also a book excerpt. Books tend to be better.
