Nassim Nicholas TalebLet me be blunt. Those who are afraid of AI feel deep down that they are impostors & have no edge. If you have a 1) clear mind, 2) a deep, not just cosmetic, undertanding of your specialty, 3) and/or are original enough to reinvent yourself when needed, AI will be your friend.
2) Many in the responses invoked a "threat to society" by AI. That's a separate problem; but for now do not self-servingly invoke a "threat to society" when what's under threat is your little franchise and rent seeking.
Now all these pundits who never thought of risk management before wake up & worry about AI: where were they with the Internet which installed fat-tailed disruptive overconnectivity?
We must be ALWAYS vigilant abt side effects but no need to grant CHINA a free advantage.
