And then, on the next page, Roose describes AI Ethics as a “cult.” …Kevin, man, you are making a whole lot of choices right now. Your editor should’ve maybe talked you out of some of them.

Show PostRoose asked a chatbot a ton of weird questions, and then the chatbot spun out and gave him weird answers. The PDoom crowd took it as proof that they’d been right all along. “What if Sydney 4.0 decided to hack into my wife’s email?” …Sure, Kevin, or what if it was all just software all along?
