There's a "wall of fear-mongering and doomerism" in the AI world right now.

"Worrying about AI today is like worrying about overpopulation on Mars."

Concerns that AI could pose a threat to humanity is "preposterously ridiculous."

Claiming AI poses an existential threat is "such an extreme" and risks "wip[ing] out some of its potential benefits."

"I'm more concerned about... the risks that are here and now [than the existential threat of AI]."

Current AI is "not anywhere close" to posing an existential threat but it could in the future.

AI is the "biggest existential threat" to humanity.

AGI's worst-case scenario would be "lights-out for all of us."

Powerful AI systems "taking control" pose an "existential threat."

AI has a "10 to 25 per cent" chance of destroying humanity.

"The most likely result of building a superhumanly smart AI... is that literally everyone on Earth will die."

Does AI Pose an Existential Threat to Humanity?

Society is more likely to get "cat-level" or "dog-level" AI years before human-level AI.

"[W]e will eventually reach AGI... and quite possibly before the end of this century."

"Superhuman AIs" will be achieved "between a few years and a couple of decades."

"Digital intelligence" could overtake us within "5 to 20 years."

We may achieve "something like AGI or AGI-like in the next decade."

"[W]e could get to real AGI in the next decade."

"Human-level" AI could occur in "two or three years."

"I'd be surprised if we don't have AGI by [2029]."

Will AI Surpass Human Intelligence, and When?

"The company is not for sale. It's another one of his tactics to try to mess with us."

"So my very basic read is Elon's offer isn't serious."

"Musk and his legal team's insistence that the offer is real should keep it in the headlines for a while, but I’m still skeptical of their story."

"We don't expect any meaningful discussions to develop."

"Elon's offer to purchase the OpenAI nonprofit for $97.4billion isn't going to happen."

"It's time for OpenAI to return to the open-source, safety-focused force for good it once was. We will make sure that happens."

"It would be difficult for the Trump administration to deport Musk as a naturalized United States citizen."

"In my opinion unless there was fraud in obtaining his status there is no chance of his citizenship been revoked."

"@elonmusk has been a U.S. Citizen since 2002. Citizens cannot be deported. Period."

Elon Musk "is about to be deported from America and he has no South Africa to go back to."

"According to the report, he is not a US citizen. This is a one way ticket out of the US."

"If he failed to mention his illegal work when he applied for naturalization, his citizenship theoretically could be revoked."

"We'll have to take a look."

Will Elon Musk Be Deported from the US?

Grokipedia spreads dangerous misinformation by promoting conservative propaganda disguised as neutral information. The platform perpetuates historical inaccuracies, uses derogatory language against transgender people, and makes false medical claims linking pornography to HIV transmission.
