It surprises me how hyper focused people are on AI risk when we’ve grown numb to the millions of preventable deaths that happen every year.
8 million people to smoking.
4 million to obesity.
2.6 million to alcohol.
2.5 million to healthcare.
1.2 million to cars.
Hell even coconuts kill 150 people per year.
It is tragic that people have lost their mind or their life to AI, and it should be prevented. But those using this as an argument to ban AI have lost touch with reality. If anything, AI may help us reduce preventable deaths. Even a 1% improvement would save hundreds of thousands of lives every year.
