Logical fallacies don't necessarily equal stupidity though sometimes they do.

A bunch of arguments about why AI would be bad have already been advanced. For the economic one, refer to Martin Ford. For the existential one, refer to Bostrom.

Induction is not a logical fallacy, it's a basis for empiricism.

It is a logical fallacy, read your Hume.

No.

Either discuss this with me or don't. Don't summon your sacred scrolls to do the arguing for you.

> It is a logical fallacy

Instead of just parroting my stance in response, I'll try to elaborate some more. Please either follow my example or don't reply to me at all.

Logic itself cannot bring you knowledge about the world, as the concept of apriori knowledge is crackpipe bullshit. All knowledge is based on induction, even your knowledge that induction is fallible. Saying induction is a "logical fallacy" doesn't even make sense, since the purpose of induction is not to perform logical operations.

I'll do whatever I want, especially when "communicating" (generous verb) with someone capable of writing the epitome of stupidity "the concept of apriori knowledge is crackpipe bullshit".

What a juvenile attitude. I wasn't giving you orders, I was presenting my standards of communication. You can do whatever the hell you want, but don't expect other people to tolerate your obnoxiousness.

You seem to get off on insulting people. I do not get off on being insulted, so I will refrain from further communication with you. Goodbye.
