I'm worried Ai will shortly make it really easy to make targeted viruses and such.

Yes, extremely worried. It seems we're on a path to brand new kinds of weapons of mass destruction, and arms races in mass parallelization. How could anyone slow down?

  • I think at least in the case of targetted viruses you can build the DNA sequence with AI, but actually creating a transmissible virus from a new sequence in the real world is still quite challenging and a relatively large hurdle.

  • I'm also worried about a thousand other things.

    You'll drive yourself crazy thinking too much you will forget to live.

    It is going to be fine.
