I agree, but that does not mean everything he says is wrong. I think the public having clear expectations of AIs and how they interact with them is important in general.

But when he talks about AI, he is talking about artificial consciousnesses, and we are no where even close to creating something like that.

I mean I agree having rules and expectations is important though.

On the other hand I wonder how enforceable it will be since people can generate models in secret in their homes.

Yudkowsky may have talked about artificial consciousnesses at various points, but that's not even close to a critical issue for why he's a doomer.

The TLDR quote I have of his fear is: “The AI does not hate you, nor does it love you, but you are made out of atoms which it can use for something else.” - https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/499238-the-ai-does-not-hate...
