P(Doom) is an invented concept, relative to ones own version of "doom", can we maybe actually act like adults and not man children who are engaged in performative speculative fiction. There are real problems like inequality that P(Doom) loves to conveniently forget.

Extreme inequality is my "Doom", and I think the P(Doom) of that is pretty high. With AI, I'm way more concerned with human marginalization, capitalist logic fucking most of us over, pervasive surveillance and control, etc. than killer robots and bioweapons.
