The rejection of such warnings even by some anti-ai people is interesting. I always liked the comparison with global warming, everybody understands the warnings had been there for many decades, we did nothing. This is the same, we will do nothing. All this serves is the interest in regulatory capture (such as a ban on open source or foreign models) or to drive up their valuation, that's the only explanation that makes any sense in our profit maximizing orphan crushing machine we call modern economics.

Which is also ironically why even anti-ai people distrust any warnings of the potential of ai as an extinction level event, even if that warning would be legitimate and we ought to take seriously we are regardless impotent to do anything about it no matter what.
