Anthropic researcher pushes back on doom: 'essentially zero chance AI kills all humans in the next decade'

In a quote-tweet exchange, sandersted noted he fully funds his 401k and thinks there's "essentially zero chance AI kills all humans in the next decade" — a common view, he argues, that gets far less attention. Anthropic interpretability researcher BorisMPower amplified it, writing that the loudest and most extreme voices get the most publicity, that nobody has all the answers, and that society will figure out how to deliver AI's huge benefits to everyone. A representative statement from the anti-doom side of the AGI risk debate.
