> Mitigating the risk of extinction from AI should be a global priority alongside other societal-scale risks such as pandemics and nuclear war.

risk of extinction due to AI? people have been reading too much science fiction. I would love to hear a plausible story of how AI will lead to human extinction that wouldn't happen with traditional non-AI tech. for the sake of conversation let's say non-AI tech is any broadly usable consumer technology before Jan 1 of 2020.
