Consider the possibility that people who know a thing or two technology might still think AI brings a lot of good and that kneecapping AI isn't the right move at this time.

There are plenty of AI experts who believe that AI will do more harm than good if it keeps being developed at this rate.

This is not as strong of an argument as you think. There have been experts who believe pretty much every technological innovation, since we transitioned from rock tablets to paper, that it will do more harm than good.

Context: I believe the end of humanity will be real AI and not climate change.

I, myself, am a lot more worried about a few monopolists doing whatever they get to choose for the rest of humanity. AI fuels that vision more than any other piece of technology.

Yeah, it's a big debate atm with knowledgeable people on both sides.
