As a persistent critic of AI hype, I should be glad for backlash. A new wave of Important Thinkpieces from Famous Pundits say AI is impossible, we don’t need to worry about it, etc.
Most are riddled with glaring illogic, false analogies, motivated reasoning, & factual errors

Huh, not me (agree with the rest of the thread). Real AI risks are elsewhere (bias, power imbalances, unaccountability, privacy loss) and not really about AI, they are in the union of AI and systems of power (political, military, economic). Singularitarianism is a distraction.

Yeah, I’m “sympathetic” in the sense that I can feel how annoyed they must be reading this stuff. Pervasive surveillance + statistical crunch is a huge and real danger; I’m reluctant to call it “AI” but I guess words mean whatever people use them to mean.

I agree with everything except the final conclusion, in that the arguments of the Singularitarian doomsayers are isomorphic in form to those of their opponents. All arguments from ignorance are bad, including those dressed up in probability theory.

Yes, I meant that I’m emotionally sympathetic to the frustration I imagine they must be feeling; not that I give any greater weight to their arguments.

I find both sides of the argument very questionable. On the one hand, I think the metaphysics of AI proponents is bad and sentience isn't in the cards any time soon. On the other, machines and code don't need to be sentient in order to be dangerous but probably not skynet danger
