President of #Signal, Meredith Whittaker (@Mer__edith ) calls the AI apocalypse a "A fantastical, adrenalizing ghost story is being used to hijack attention around what is the problem that regulation needs to solve"

I agree. And I think Hank Green would agree if he took a closer look at #AIdoomerism and the people and orgs he platformed in his last two videos on #AI.

I wrote about it here.

Hank Green And The Fantastical Tales of God AIs

In his two latest videos, Hank Green promotes AI-doomerist rhetoric that sounds a lot like big tech talking points.

An excellent post, but really, how much time do you want to spend listening to Hank Green? I ignore him and it works out just fine!

@jdp23 I have another part to this post that I'll publish soon. But I don't think we can just ignore Hank. His largely left-leaning audience is buying into AI doomerism and I think that has consequences.

But yeah, I'm personally done with Hank for now.

@fromjason @Mer__edith I unfollowed Hank after his first video that took AI Doomerism seriously. I didn't know he'd made a second, even worse, video.

This is like Adam Conover shilling for Worldcoin.

@cholling @Mer__edith At least Adam apologized I guess. Hank is going full speed ahead so far
