      I hate the framing here “the risks outweigh.the benefits” is critihype. The survey maker shouldn’t be reinforcing the general population’s assumption that spicy autocomplete means that AGI is nigh.

      Although I guess when framed as “spicy autocorrect trained on classic sci-fi tropes like terminator being in charge of making kill decisions” the risk framing makes more sense but I don’t think I’m going out on a limb here to suggest that this is not how average Joe is going to mentally frame the question

      Thank you! There was another section that had different numbers and I was just looking at raw numbers as well.
