    Lol how? No seriously, HOW exactly would AI 'wipe out humanity'???

    All this fear mongering bollocks is laughable at this point, or it should be. Seriously there is no logical pathway to human extinction by using AI and these people need to put the comic books down.
    The only risks AI pose are to traditional working patterns, which have been always exploited to further a numbers game between Billionaires (and their assets).

    These people are not scared about losing their livelihoods, but losing the ability to control yours. Something that makes life easier and more efficient requiring less work? Time to crack out the whips I suppose?
