> Conclusion: I Genuinely Don’t Know What These People Are Thinking
Two things can be true at the same time (and are always true of 100's of aspects of modern life):
1. A devastating possibility is in theory possible, the likelihood of it happening is non-zero.
2. We can't live and make decisions catastrophizing given _we have absolutely no understanding_ about the real likelihood.
Is the coffee example a good argument? Of course not! But do we know the likelihood of humanity's ability to create super intelligence AND that that intelligence will cause unimaginable suffering? Uh I don't think so?
