You're defending one extreme by claiming the other extreme is the only option. Which isn't honest behaviour even if it was well intended. Truthfully, AI will cause real problems and we need to handle it, but it's also often exaggerated. It's a rapid technological shift, but like all the other ones anyone who works hard will still find a place to be useful.

"Tomorrow, all of humanity will be affected, forever."

This..is not being honest about AI's capabilities. Its just generic hyperbole. Also, simply not specific enough to be called honest or dishonest. It's just panic-inducing.
