This is the same as slacklining over a ravine with no harness. Are the views epic? Yes. Does the adrenaline rush feel good? Yes. Are the consequences irreversible if you happen to mess up? Probably yes. The last point is why there's so much more doomerism compared to OpenAI's previous products. We don't have that harness and we don't know if we'll ever have it.

Wtf has machine learning technology have to do with crazy adrenaline sports that will get you killed? That was way out of left field.
It's an analogy.. perhaps a bit hyperbolic, but it's within the acceptable window IMO.
When Facebook came out very few considered it an existential risk. Turns out, it has immense power over elections. Elections have consequences for the well being of billions of people on the planet. Not to mention it might negatively impact the mental health of its users (a large chunk of the human population).
