A lot of AI experts predict around a 10% chance of an AI superintellegence causing humanity's extinction within the century.
But of course no one is going to stop working on AI. It's too profitable.

I was in the ICU after fracturing several vertebrae in my neck when I went into respiratory failure. My wife was with me at the time and alerted the medical staff. They came running and revived me. Don’t remember the incident, though my wife says I was talking to her when it started.

Yes, that's where the name comes from and this is also the sub where you most likely got the idea from, as this has been posted before, the last time yesterday I think.

Why not? Humans could feed starving children. We have the food. It's just expensive to get the food to where it needs to be. AI could find ways to make that more efficient.
Of course that depends on whether the rich people who own AI actually want to use it to feed starving children, but that's an entirely separate question to whether it's possible.
