Oh, sorry. 99% of the time.
We weren't wrong just once, 40 years ago. That's just one example, but the Luddites and doomers were wrong every time something new was invented. Check this out: https://x.com/PessimistsArc
We're not much better than our ancestors. We'd like to think we are, because we're much more intelligent and have access to more information. But we really aren't. We're still driven by irrational sentiments and fears.…
If you oppose LLMs and the field because of pure irrational instinct, like those people in the past, you can just state it outright, no need for complicated arguments.
Of course. Those people back then were stupid and irrational and couldn't see they were wrong. Today we are much more enlightened and smart, and our convoluted arguments, that sound very smart and somehow reach the same…
Remember the debate about how nuclear was stopped in the 70s because of NIMBYism? We are now wondering "how could people then be so stupid and shortsighted?". Well, there you go, here's history repeating before our eyes.

AI researchers are just as prone as everyone else to be self-delusional.
This is what people don't appreciate when quoting those statistics about how self-driving cars are safer than humans: when a human driver causes an accident, it was because that particular person did something wrong.…
Agree, it's a serious vulnerability, but it's not exploitable remotely.

Not true, most AI doomers are actually worried about Skynet.

Even if AI is a threat, it's impossible to predict today how the threat is going to look in the future. The "AI safety" crowd watched too many Terminator movies. We'll deal with AI the same way humans dealt with any…
