I just think that those of you sticking your head in the sand when it comes to AI are misguided. If it’s a disinformation campaign to slow or stop its progress, I totally understand that there are valid reasons to do so, but I don’t think they will succeed in the end.

You sound like one of those Christians who cannot conceptualize atheists. They cannot consider a lack of belief, rather atheists must believe all the same things they do, they’re just mad at god. Similarly, you cannot countenance the idea that AI isn’t all its been promised to be, so I must secretly agree with you, but be fighting against the computer god.
