One idea I find particularly weird is the worry that AI would somehow become dangerous if consciousness "arises" in it.
Like, what exactly do you think happens inside those chips? Some ghost in the machine begins flipping bits? Don't GPUs compute and electricity flow as they used to or what?

"there will be no way out when a problem arises with conscious AI. Once it becomes conscious, it is already uncontrollable"
I don't understand this line of thinking. Why do people assume consciousness is functional? And would it like suddenly begin flipping bits beyond the defined computations?

More generally though, this objection seems strange to me, given how many other kinds of social inequality we seem willing to tolerate (especially in health care and education; though obviously this differs hugely by country)

My test is 99% accurate and predicts that your child will grow to between 5 and 6.5 feet have an IQ between 80 and 130 and live 60-90 years. AND I don’t need any DNA to do my test…
