The rich have been building their private fallout bunkers for a while already. I wonder if this is partly to hype up AI to keep the excitement going to entice continuing investment. "You guys, AI is so scary it's going to replace all these jobs." And I think it will, and hopefully not to a point that is socially destabilizing. But the real economy is already on the rocks, I don't buy it that recent layoffs of white collar workers is solely or even primarily due to LLMs taking those jobs.
The point I'm trying to get at is that the people telling us that AI is a terrifying world-changing force are the same people who need to keep money pouring in to their AI businesses.
