I don't think it will be Chernobyl or 9/11 level, but I do think an epic fuckup with potential casualties is going to set AI back ten years. And maybe by then we'll have figure out our shit enough to make it not destroy society.
It's the same cycle you see with deregulation. Dereg good, until so much dereg that something epically fucks up. Then it's "why did no one prevent this" and regulations are back again.

I mean, it's not like we have turned away from nuclear power. There are still dozens of new plants being build every year worldwide.

This is propaganda. Its the left's version of "roving caravans of gang members coming into the country"
oh no the left is coming to make the world a better place
Are they?
Can you lay out for me what they are doing, and who does it benefit?
Because AI is here. It's like saying you're going to stop oil production in Texas. It looks like the left is being used to stall progress in an emerging competitive tech industry that will shape the next century of power. Looks like a primary generator is a website that is heavily tied to Chinese propaganda.
It sounds like you don't know what the left is, you are clearly from the USA, the democrats are right wing, marketed as left, you live in a duopoly con.
"Chinese propaganda" ...no wonder the USA is such a toilet bowl, you zombies so eagerly buy into your own racist propaganda.
You mistranslated what I wrote.
Possible, but "texas" "left" "chinese propaganda" ...given another paragraph I would have expected you to start selling trump bibles
