because you might be wrong, or people might genuinely not understand that you’re right? There are many people who believe that their lives are in danger of a lot of things: vaccines against covid, GMOs, climate change, etc. They also sincerely believe that they are right and can consider scientists evil because they endanger their lives and the lives of their family. But the problem is that if they start equating any people who disagree with them with the evil that deliberately wants to destroy them, it radicalizes them and promoting enmity. Is this a rational approach when every person, confident that technology N can kill him, starts openly hating the scientists who develop it?
This is drawing a false equivalence between AI risk and random crackpot beliefs, which is dishonest. You won’t find accomplished scientists saying vaccines against covid, GMOs, or climate change have a substantial likelihood of killing everyone. Also it’s not relevant whether someone who’s going to kill me is evil and I’m not talking about that, I want them to be stopped from killing me whether they’re evil or not, and whether they can be talked out of it or not.
