This is a very ironic statement.

Do you think that AI killing us would not involve us doing stupid shit with AI first? Or do you have some strange idea that this strange AI we're talking about would just pop up out of nowhere like a miracle?

lol precisely. At least you have come around to my argument. Its stupid people doing stupid things, not some amazing AI that spits out text doing it. Stupid people kill people today already. Stupid people have always existed but LLMS are not going to wipe out humanity.

There is no AGI, there is no intellgent text predictor that is scheming to make us do stupid shit to wipe us off the map, its stupid people that evolution will take care of. We have survived this long, we will be ok. We make mistakes along the way but we somehow manage to survive. The only thing I see killing us soon is climate change, but again we can stop it but stupid people seem to want us to keep going down the path we are. We will eventually solve that problem too.

If anyone has any strange ideas, its those parroting the idea that LLMs are AGI and will lead to the death of humanity. Utter nonsense but again thankfully nature and evolution has a way of keeping the smart and strong while eliminating the weak.

No, I have not come to your view at all.

I won't bother arguing, but there's also no need to be rude about it
