I only skimmed the piece itself, but the title of this article is in extremely bad taste -- makes me doubt that the author really intends to consider the pros and cons of AI research in good faith.

Let me guess -- this is another alarmist take pushing the Yudkowsky narrative that we need to halt AI research and nuke datacenters.
