Isn't it weird that although Americans are increasingly worried about AI related fears like jobs, data centers, AI-inspired violence, and scams, so many of the country's most prominent and well-funded AI “safety” experts and organizations seem to be way more focused on talking about “what if we create a superintelligence that unleashes a swarm of self-perpetuating robots that then kills us all with bioweapons, and also something something time-manipulating basilisks"?
