AI Doom
Deconstructing The Grift
Since the earliest days of AI research, fears have simmered about intelligent machines turning against their creators. As AI capabilities advance at a dizzying pace, a full-blown culture of AI doomerism has taken root.

But the most dire AI doomer predictions can become self-fulfilling, breeding fatalism rather than solutions. With pragmatic approaches, we can acknowledge risks while still envisioning an optimistic future where AI enhances human potential. The path ahead requires nuance - doomsayers offer valid warnings, but progress also necessitates hope and real action.
