While I might not totally agree with the conclusion - men are becoming more and more subservient to machines. How many people now sit in an office and/or do most of their work - or even social interface - through a machine? This article actually has a lot of truth in it. However, if you feel tech is largely just upside and the arch of humanity tends "upward" - you are also involved in fanatical thinking.
Rare bad take! The pessimists are clearly the ones who doubt our ability to create AI powerful enough to destroy the world, not the ones afraid of our own success.
There are a subset of optimists who think we will totally build an AI that can destroy the world, but it will also be totally possible to make sure it doesn’t. Hats off to these most optimistic of us all! But they seem pretty rare to me.
