Well, imo the primary issue with those arguments is that they have the level of informality at which they rapidly and exponentially diverge from correctness (and converge onto measure of person’s mood, cynicism, political orientation, upbringing, the order in which they were exposed to views, and the like). It is pretty much pure bias.
If you have less misleading questions to suggest (or could rank existing questions by misleadingness), this is the thread. If most such questions are misleading, what other things can be tried to improve on the default state of ignorance?
The arguments on safety of the AI especially, but it is a general comment on the arguments surrounding that sort of issue in general.
edit: To clarify. It is a fact of fuzzy decision systems that they diverge from being useful exponentially or worse in number of steps. You may not like this fact, but that is how things are, and when you are fuzzily thinking of the fuzzy concepts, the resulting effort is useless if not worse than useless (which it easily can be if its inaccuracy is under-estimated).

Was this intended in response to something in particular?
