I have a friend who earnestly told me I sound like an evangelical about AI. He worried for my sanity.
I told him that if I saw that Jesus was alive, walking amongst us, performing actual miracles - I would definitely try to convert him. I'm not one to look away from hard data just because it's inconvenient.
That's exactly what's going on right now. People's reactions to it are so weird.

Satisfying to see Aaronson, who is usually downplaying some claimed advance, correctly panicking. It makes me feel better about my own.
For there is always a time to panic, no matter how exhausting the requirement might seem. And that time is now.
