My cynical AI opinion is that if it truly was revolutionary, we would be seeing private companies or governments use it internally to massively boost their productivity or achieve otherwise impossible feats. Instead, all we're seeing are consumer products or half-baked integrations that are another way to further centralize data collection.

Talks about all-powerful, malevolent AI or requesting to halt AI development just sounds like baiting for regulary capture to me. If AI research or use is deemed dangerous, it becomes even harder for startups or individuals to compete with established companies.

Also, I am not concerned about an all-powerful AI in the slightest. Humanity is excellent at oppressing others, and I have no doubt we'd be equally good at oppressing a true AI as well.
