If you talk to the people on the bleeding edge of AI research instead of nuke-heads (I tend to be kinda deep into both communities), you'll get a better picture that, yeah, a lot of people who work on AI really do think that AI is like nukes in the scale of force multiplication it will be capable of in the near to medium future, and may well vastly exceed nukes in this regard. Even in the "good" scenarios you're looking at a future where people with relatively small resources will have access to information that would create disruptive offensive capabilities, be it biological or technological or whatever. In worse scenarios, people aren't even in the picture any more, the AIs are just working with or fighting each other and we are in the way.

I’m pretty sure what communities you are in are not actual research but some hype alarmist bullshit communities, since as a ML researcher absolutely zero of my peers think the things you say.

You have no clue what communities I’m in other than it self affirms your worldview to assume that they must be irrelevant. To be fair, I’m not telling you anything about myself, so you’re not really needing to take my word for it. And I don’t care enough about you to explain in detail.

Though with a tiny bit of Googling you’ll be able to find several Turing Award winners who are saying exactly what I’m saying. In public. Loudly.
