Louise [orange diamond] (in Berkele... (verified) @LeRoyD... · 12h did you know AI/acc lobby is having success turning the left-wing anti-AI movement AGAINST AI x-risk, somehow. Spectacular rhetorical sleight of hand. It's all over Instagram. It goes: - AI labs are Bad, and they talk about AI x-risk, so x-risk is suspicious, - AI is *already* causing existential risks by [drinking up the oceans]/[destroying art]/[something else that clearly isn't existential], - Therefore AI x-risk is deployed as a distraction from real current risks, it's all a conspiracy, - and YOU, viewer, can act by boycotting LLMs and muting the word "AI" on all platforms (so you don't see those pesky calls to action and the growing list of alarming incidents).
