AI Risk for Cavemen

No.13482898 ViewReplyOriginalReport
> AI is a caveman looking at a group of cavemen shamans performing a strange ritual that summons many strange and somewhat useful beings. Some of the shamans say they're going to eventually summon a Messiah that will solve all problems. Others say that there's a chance to summon a world-devouring demon, by mistake. Yet others say neither are going to happen, that the sprites and elementals that the ritual has been bringing into the world are all the ritual can do.

In the analogy, you are the lay-caveman. Which shamans do you listen to and why?
