When people claim that an AI apocalypse or similar are ridiculous or impossible, be sure to remember how absolutely fanatically insane you wouldโve seemed and been accused of being if in 1800 youโd claimed that in less than 200 years thereโd be a single bomb no bigger than a wagon that could destroy an entire large city โ region, even.
Yet we have those now.
What little imagination most people have goes to attempting to reduce it in others.
