AI safety researcher Jeremie Harris says DC insiders consistently advised his team to ease up on 'rogue AI' talk; they refused and took credibility hits for years. He argues elected officials should realize many people they meet are quietly freaked out about rogue AI. In the quoted post, Gabecc adds that many have been similarly duplicitous, and that Dean's apology is warranted and should come with lasting credibility loss.
