The AI industry wants us to believe AI superintelligence is the real threat from generative AI.
But that narrative was crafted to distract from the many ways genAI is being used to tear our societies apart, as we saw this week when a deepfake video rocked the Irish election. It must be reined in.

@parismarx isn't that basically how disruptive things work? oh the cars will destroy all the horse drawn carriages, this is an old fear that is ungrounded in reality as we have seen on countless occasions, instead maybe accept change and look at all the opportunities. ai needs oversight like anything else but it is not an exception, ireland is a tech hub now thanks to generous tax laws, somehow it may be appropriate #blarney
