Its speculation on whether it is truly dangerous. I think approaching it with "what's the most dangerous thing that's happened?" while possibly interesting in terms of pending danger, it says nothing about potential cliff edge danger. I don't think we can quantify the danger, it's not out of the question there is cliff like danger in creating self improving super intelligence. Some peoples danger senses are going to be based on concrete observed threats, others are going to worried about potential hypotheticals that seem plausible. I'm mostly skeptical of the danger but I do think the impact of AI is going to change things a lot. But much like climate change, economics is going to guide what we actually do.
