I didn't say it is a conspiracy.

But I think overhyped fears about AI leading to human extinction are causing real harm:
- I'm seeing young students discouraged from entering AI because they don't want to contribute to human extinction.
- Hype about harm is also being used to promote bad regulation worldwide, such as requiring licensing of large models, which will crush open-source and stifle innovation.

I know you're sincere in your concerns about AI and human extinction. I just respectfully disagree with you on extinction risk, and also think these arguments -- sincere though they be in your case -- do more harm than good.
