We dont need AI to posit WallE.
Its bixarre anyone things these things are generating novel complexes.
The biggest indirect AI safety problem is the fallback position. Whether with airplanes or cars, fewer people will be able to handle AI disconnects. The risk is believing just because its viable now doesnt mean it works in the future.
So we definitely have safety issues but its not a nerdlike cognitivw interest, its the literal job taking that prevents humans from gaining skills.
Anyway, untill you solve basic reality with AI and actualnsafety systems, the billionaores will sacrifice you for greed.
