HN thinks the safety crowd is dumb, and has never seriously engaged with the AI safety space.

HN doesn't believe superintelligence will be a thing; while the AI safety crowd believes they are building it. So the decisionmaking of the safety crowd is incomprehensible to HN.

What is the AI safety crowd exactly?

Dont we have a thread here how the model allegedly leaks responses what is "normal" safety? (Not "agi will become skynet" safety - what is mostly a rehash of terminator 2 story)

According to their comment history, the person you're replying to believes that AGI, ASI, "superintelligence" and all of that sci-fi terminator what-have-you is not only possible, but literally inevitable. They're not worried about normal safety, they're worried about Skynet and the T-1000. American AI labs – Anthropic in particular – are apparently playing the role of Sara and/or John Connor in this story.

Stated without a hint of irony.

Reductionist. Many of us think they’re all dumb.
