#2If they actually believed this they'd be buying a truckload of fertilizer and diving it to the nearest chip fab. I don't buy it.

#3Probably for the best. Humanity had a good run, but this is no longer our civilization.
Your best course of action is to start ripping the copper out of the walls.

Assuming they are human and I think we can accept they are then they would be in the "set of all humans" so yes.

#6I am absolutely appalled that this type of marketing is allowed. It is so disingenuous.

#7This is the most perverse marketing campaign in history.
"Our product might wipe out all of human civilization".

#8It's all marketing. Don't fall for it, it's the age old strategy "our product is extremely dangerous, so fear us".
Like the tobacco companies saying all the time "our cigarettes are so dangerous, they cause cancer".
Or like Purdue Pharma saying "do not use fentanyl, it's so dangerous, it kills thousands of people every year".
They try to generate fear in their products, to shock investors into buying their stock.

#10If it does it will be at the hands of another human.
AI to me is like the Nuclear race again. Super powers will be using it as a super weapon. I don't think AGI will wipe us out by itself.
