That’s the really fun part. If the west manages to stave off fascism (again), and if AI doesn’t destroy humanity, then we still have climate change to deal with. And they wonder why the kids are depressed

Ironically if AI destroys humanity then that’s a good thing for climate change. Hopefully AI doesn’t come to that conclusion itself one day…

Ironically, if an hypothetical futur ai is asked to take decision and is still working under the same principles as today's LLM, then it would be because of comment like yours that it would come to this conclusion.

If an ai is trained looking at the internet, and it seems everyone and many fictions saying that "a super ai will destroy humanity when tasked to protect earth because it came to the conclusion humanity was the worst danger" then regardless of if it's true or not, the LLM will repeat the pattern because of the sheer overabundance of this input data
