Comparing AI to our other technologies to assess risk is flawed. AI will create technologies that we cannot; so we should not compare them to those we could.

Interesting take. (1) Would it not also have been applicable to computing generally? Or the internet? Or steam? (2) If we cannot compare the future to the past, to what should we compare it?

No. AI will literally create technologies. It’s intelligence. We cannot compare it. Probably the best effort would be to a hypothetical more-intelligent species, but AI doesn’t have the limitations.

i actually feel the complete opposite, that ai can be compared to a calculator in that it can perform some tasks better but others not. comparing it to super intelligence severely underestimates the human minds potential, especially considering our incomplete understanding of its fundamental processes.

I hear this. It leapfrogs the “will create with us” phase, but i see the future you intimate where it will create without us. Perhaps an analogy to technology is inapt then. Perhaps this is why we see more and more an analogy to parenting?

it starts as narrow tooling that can perform in a superhuman manner. fundamentally, it is incomplete and nonviable atm. we haven't demonstrated that it can be generalistically complete, but we can attempt to discover depth-first simulation of the worse ways it can propagate.
