I'm not saying the AI doomers are wrong. I am saying that I find their arguments unconvincing and maybe the AI doomers need new spokespeople.

I listened to a couple hours of Fridman's interview of Yudkowsky and it seemed that his argument was mostly "it's self evident."

I listened to Hinton on the MIT Technology Review and it seemed that his argument was "the AI will be like a parent and we will be like the two year old child."

We need some better arguments, and especially some concrete examples. I feel like we dealt with this exact problem with those warning of climate change's impacts for decades. Namely a lack of relatable scenarios.

Maybe we could use a good old fashioned debate.
