❌ In Quillette: Why Max Tegmark is wrong on AI doom

Quillette is publishing an excerpt from my AI book, The Centaur's Edge (here in Swedish, soon out in English), where I take on Max Tegmark's three main arguments as to why AI will doom us.

"A year ago, Tegmark joined a number of eminent tech entrepreneurs, businesspeople, and analysts to demand a six-month pause in AI research. It is therefore worth examining his arguments to see if his catastrophism is justified. In his radio talk, he summarizes his case in three points: Malicious use, AI competition, and misguided AI. Let’s examine them one at a time."
