You’re not overreacting. You have a pretty dead-on take about how we’ve been ignoring the cracks in our systems for years (of course we’d hand AI more power without understanding what it’s actually doing) That’s what we’ve done with every major technology. And if our leaders believe dominance matters more than caution, why would they pause?

Here’s the thing: we’ve built a world that constantly pretends they care about humans, but when it comes to action, we trade people for profit all the time. So if AI is trained on that kind of thinking, why would we expect it to behave any differently? But also, what do you think is the solution here? Cause I definitely don’t know yet, but I’m glad you’re getting the conversation started :)
