Threat to upend our society? Sure. So did the industrial revolution, and the agriculture revolution. And most of us don't want to go back.
It's the year 2023. The "it can kill us all" narrative is 2030+ range as far as I know.
>Sure. I can buy a car that can go faster than I can sprint, too. That's not an existential risk; that's just a better tool.
Not exactly the same. The nuclear bomb can do a lot more damage than a human can physically. Nuclear bombs are an existential risk. Some people equate the development of AI as the same as nuclear bombs.
