Oh, I agree that people (including the developers pretending that AI is on intelligent) are hyping it up as more than what it is - but let's not act like it's not a disruptive technology. LLMs are only the beginning. Once more of these get leaked out into the open the development will be exponential. I expect them to fully mimic human intelligence within the next 10 years. It's mostly a good thing as long as that development is not kept in the hands of the elites. I feel like the fear mongering over AI and Climate Change are on entirely different levels. The former is a lot of hype and FUD and people admittedly don't know how it works or what will happen. The latter is a church and everyone KNOWS the world will end in 10 years if we don't cut CO2 emissions NOW.
Note how the flat-earthers and ancient aliens people don't get cracked down on.
You only need to crack down on dissenters when they are dissenting against a lie.
What does AI have to do with it?
