This is less related to actually existing "AI" and more about one of the myths (or, ultimately, the constellation of myths) that drives people to work on "AI." I posted this on Mastodon, but it probably belongs here as well.

Adding on a constructive criticism:

Even the occasional ability to predict the future, combined with the inability to actually stop it from happening, is a classical unpleasantness attested to by the story of Pandora.

I believe OP meant the story of Cassandra, not Pandora.

Other than that and some typos, though, well argued! Added this to my bookmark hoard.
