Comment Re:Counterpoint explanation (Score 1) 124

As far as I can tell, statistics doesn't apply to these rare deaths because there are so few of them, so since the sample size is small, we could say any rule applies. I think we should stick with the "it's just coincidences" explanation which also seems to be the officially sanctioned explanation, and I'd hate to differ.

Comment Re:Argument is the same as Drexler's Nanotech (Score 1) 60

Someone understands the situation. Yes, it's a typical silicon valley tech scare thing. People profit off these tech scare schemes. Sometimes a bit worry is good, as they say, but in this case, it looks like it is way overblown, as was the case with nanotech with one difference, AI is becoming immensely successful, and pervasive, but it doesn't seem to be as harmful as scaremongers claim it is.

As an AI researcher, I'll say we should research safety aspects, but this borders on paranoia now.
