But that isn't my point. Regardless of whether they're honest, have we even agreed that "AGI" is good?

Everyone is so tumbling over themselves even to discuss will-it-won't-it, but they seem to think about it like some kind of Manhattan project or Space race.

Like, they're *so sure* it's gonna take everyone's jobs so that there will be nothing left for people other than a life of leisure. To me this just sounds like the collapse of society, but apparently the only thing worse would be if China got the tech first. Oh no, they might use it to collapse their society!

Somebody's math doesn't add up.
