Please notice that your reply is a different argument than the one you first put forth. Originally, you weren&#x27;t worried about AI because you thought it could never –even in principle– vastly exceed human abilities. Now you&#x27;re basically saying, &quot;I don&#x27;t need to worry because it won&#x27;t happen for a long time.&quot; That is a huge amount of ground to cede.<p>I&#x27;m not so confident that human-level AI will take a long time. The timeline depends on algorithmic insights, which are notoriously difficult to predict. It could be a century. It could be a decade. Still, it seems like something worth worrying about.
