Andrew Ng Video Slams AI Fear Mongering: 'A Dishonest Agenda Is Being Implemented'
AIandDesign · x · 2026-09-13
AIandDesign recommends Andrew Ng's video on the ForHumanity podcast explaining what's behind 'nonsensical fear mongering' about AI, adding: this doesn't mean advanced AI is risk-free, but 'a dishonest agenda is being implemented right now. More dangerous for our children's future than AI itself.'
Consistent with Ng's long-standing critique of existential-risk narratives distorting regulation and public attention.
