We can't trust AI companies to regulate themselves.

An individual in Canada used ChatGPT for eight months to plan one of the country’s worst mass shootings.

Yet, if you listen to politicians and media, the real threat of AI is a fantastical scenario where it might wipe out humans in ten years. They need to stop getting fooled by tech deceivers.
The media has the AI threat all wrong
Generative AI is harming people today. We don’t need to waste time fantasizing about science fictional scenarios.

1/Forget AI existential threat. This is far scarier. Jensen Huang lays out a dystopian future of computer outsourcing, human deskilling, and firm recklessness shrouded in the notion that these firms are unleashing an ayn randian paradise. Take a listen.
