Of course it would be unacceptable. Honestly, this thread feels like talking to people who have the reading comprehension of a 5th grader.

Someone said "AI might kill everybody soon" and prevailing argument is "it's wrong because it's not gonna be like everybody everybody".

  • It's the AI doomers who have chosen to frame the argument in terms of extinction. Even if they were only claiming that 1% of the world population will be killed in the next 10 years, it would still be an extraordinary claim that hasn't been established with any amount of rigor. I'll reiterate the original point: these people are not serious, they're spreading alarmist nonsense, and they're undermining the public's trust in experts.
