AI has already murdered hundreds of thousands of people via Lavendar and the US equivalent.
It’s been an existential threat for years.

That’s a good name for what happened to the school in Minab that murdered hundreds of innocent girls
It’s also what the Israeli forces have been doing to Palestinians in Gaza.
Fuck….
You still need to tell it to find targets. The existential risk they keep trying to sell us is that AI starts acting of its own accord. It really can not, to a significant degree anyway. You can give an agent really vague directions and maybe it’ll choose to do something dangerous or illegal, but you can just kill the process at any point and it’s done.
The definition of existential is that it’s a threat to existence. It’s already been used to murder innocent people.
That’s the definition of an existential risk.
The definition of “existential risk” in question is specifically cult jargon for “could singlehandedly end human civilization and/or the entire species.” Autonomous weapon systems, though horrifying and unconscionable, are just fine by most “x-risk” types as long as they’re only used against enemies of the state instead of enemies of Skynet.
No. Existential means it kills people. You’re moving the goal posts.
I’m not the one moving them, go look at the actual kinds of statements the PR guys make about destroying humanity.
