You are the one acting foolish by assuming that because you can imagine something becoming existentially dangerous when it has shown zero evidence of doing so... that we should prioritize focusing on it when we have things like Climate Change that are actually existential threats.
Yes, anything could become an existential threat, I will however focus on the realistic most likely existential threats because otherwise I will spend my whole life worried that sky is falling while propping up the value of snake oil salesman tech companies.
I would suggest ingesting less scifi slop about AI and taking an interest in actual existential issues threatening us.
Where is my strawman argument?
