AI doomerism to create more hype around AI.
How AI could really destroy the world: corporation’s replace engineers with not properly working AI. Something critical break because the AI doesn’t work properly and no one can repair it
That is by far the most likely scenario. Hell it’s already happening with the AI we do have. Teslas driving into walls, facial recognition mistaking an innocent person for a criminal (mentioned in the article).
Doomsday science fiction is fun to toy with but it usually involves a lot of hand waving.
To be fair, people (on average) are a LOT worse at driving than a computer. I’d bet the percentage of humans driving into walls is much higher than self driving vehicles.

What makes you say it’s hype? It seems plausible and at least at a glance it’s bad for businesses who work with AI.
