I think it absolutely could if we're not careful. I don't think we reached the point it inevitably will now, but if things keep going the way they are, AI absolutely could and we need to do more to regulate it

I think the environmental implications are more concerning than the technology itself.

I don’t think it’ll wipe out humanity or anything but it’s still awful

I don’t think time is super relevant. I think it’s already intelligent to wipe us out at any point so it doesn’t have to do with the advancement of the technology, it just has to do with our capability of controlling it. Who knows when the control will be lost or if it will be. I think the destruction/rejection of technology is just as likely to happen. I feel it’s a 50/50 chance, but time is irrelevant

I think we’ll likely be okay for a long time, but yes, if it keeps evolving over time (obviously it will) I think there’s a real risk

Ai doesn’t have emotions or perogative. I think we often overlook the fact that we do everything for a reason, and the reason if we look deep enough always comes down to emotions. Ai has no reason to do anything. It’s just a chain reaction. Input, fulfillment, output

AI isn’t going to even attempt to wipe people out without people attempting to make it do that, with government level funding. It’s not out of the question that multiple governments would already have botnet viruses sitting in their back pockets, but that’s an entirely separate issue to llms or anything running in a datacenter.

Yeah agree with this 100%, along with the social and psychological/ societal implications. The idea of "superintelligent, out-of-control AI agents" though, is being MASSIVELY hyperbolized by the media and corporate PR departments, this stuff can't actually function independently, that's all a marketing ploy to drive stock prices.
