@GaryMarcus I think there’s around a 25% chance (lot of uncertainty though) I’m going to die from some AI related catastrophe in the next 5 years. It’s something that weighs on me and triggers feelings of hopelessness sometimes.

Readers between 18-25, what is your level of anxiety with respect to how AI will change the world in the next five years?

Fuller answers in comments elaborating your answers would be appreciated.

The statement by @anglerfish01, 'doubt it is anywhere near that high,' is a response to a conversation about the potential risks of AI, specifically addressing the concern of dying from an AI-related catastrophe. This constitutes public discourse as it engages with a public issue regarding AI's impact on society.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement does not cause harm directly, but it dismisses the previous speaker's concern without offering support or understanding, which could be seen as insensitive. [-1]
  2. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    The statement lacks empathy and compassion as it dismisses the concern without acknowledging the feelings of hopelessness expressed by the previous speaker. [-2]
  3. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement does not engage in constructive dialogue or criticism. It dismisses the concern without providing a rationale or engaging in a meaningful discussion. [-1]
