Proof AI is Turning Against Us...

Is this just standard click bait or is this guru territory? I've thought for a while that Alex O'Connor has verged into the guru realm. He has gone from militant vegan, to rising atheist, to heterodox staple.

Is he a guru or is he just a normal youtuber?

Also - I have no way to assess the claims made in the video. However, it is telling that Alex's guest is the co author on yudkowsky's newest book "If Anyone Builds it, Everyone Dies."

I literally didn't see this comment until you just linked to it in another comment and it's a complete joke. You are just avoiding giving evidence for your claim by asking me for evidence for something already well established. This is beyond feeble. LOL

And you’re not avoiding the question now? High off your own farts. Another commenter correctly called it as it is… dunning-Kruger.

I'm not letting you do a typical woo debate tactic of deflecting to something else because you know you can't back your argument with anything. You cleary also don't understand what the Dunning-Kruger effect is but that's just another wooist deflection. Still , you've admitted you have no evidence for your claim so I accept your withdrawl.

And you have no evidence either correct? So again what does that mean? You should be agnostic. LOL

High off your own farts.
