Yes, it's very concerning and frustrating that more people don't understand the risks posed by AI. It's not about AI becoming sentient and destroying humanity, it's about humanity using AI to destroy itself. I think this fundamental misunderstanding of the problem is the reason why you get so many of these dismissive "AI is just techbro hype" comments. So many people are genuinely clueless about a) how manipulative this technology already is and b) the rate at which it is advancing.
