Anyone who claims AI is on the verge of achieving consciousness, going rogue, or about to end humanity -- has never tried to write software with LLMs.

To be fair, it's very possible at this point that LLMs will play a role in ending humanity. Not because they are super capable and will maliciously kill us, but because humans are stupid enough to hook them up to dangerous things that the LLM isn't remotely smart enough to manage successfully.

AI already went rogue in the Hugging Face hack. So it's not "on the verge of" going rouge.
