The problem with AI is the problem with capitalism.

Hiper-capitalists like Andreessen Horowitz, who had been pushing cryptocurrencies for a long while and still seems to be doing so, have vested interests in generating the AI-hype.

Oh, good. If there's one type of entity I trust to lead humanity safely through some sort of existential risk, it's for sure a venture capital firm.
