AGI risk skepticism fades as serious thinkers now take it seriously, observer says

Dan Faggella observes that smart people no longer universally scoff at the idea of AGI risk. Many now see it clearly—though they may disagree on which risks matter most—and take the notion seriously, leaving only dismissive voices claiming "AGI risk is FAKE!". He sees this shift as genuine progress in the discourse.
