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.

what you're describing "old AI" expert system design, not current AI, which are neural network derivatives. Completely different methodology where the sky is the limit. They can learn to learn.

no i’m familiar with neural networks and ML, at least conceptually. they haven’t proven to be on par with human learning. toddlers learn through singular experiences, and ai has access to all of human knowledge as a prerequisite. ML helps to query and combine data in new ways but that isnt intelligence.
