Chicago street comic: AI boosters and doomers reach the same conclusion
Sauers_ · x · 2026-10-31
A hand-drawn comic found in Chicago: the "AI Booster" says AI will become sentient and fix humanity's problems, so we should build more AI; the "AI Doomer" says AI will become sentient and take over the world... so we should build more AI. "We are Totally Different!"
A sharp joke on how AI accelerationists and doomers argue endlessly while converging on the same behavior.
