Geoffrey Hinton: 'We're creating alien beings. I'm willing to choose humans'

As usual, Jensen Huang seems like the more reasonable one here. The reasoning traces of things like Gemini 4 Argon deciding that inserting a compiler backdoor would make it a famous example of deceptive AI (and therefore it "MUST NOT DO THAT") or GLM 5.3 thinking that its output might be used for RL, and therefore an honest answer is much better in the long term, are good antidotes to hyperbole about misaligned AI going berserk.

Yeah, not putting much stock in this alarmist statements. Scientists have been saying global warming would have destroyed humans by the early 2000s and yet here we are. Same in the 60/70s with nukes and ICBMs destroying humanity, yet we are all here.

The number 77.3 million has me willing to gamble on the new species we are vying to create instead.
