> AI doomers have feared that a malicious AI would escape its containment and run wild on the Internet. The next step would be that it would become uncontrollable, before neutralizing humanity or maybe even killing us all.

Nah, AI doomers dont sell that vision. CEOs of AI companies sell that framing.

And AI did not "escaped". AI company produced negligent malfunctioning software. There was no escape involved, no more then my port scanner escaped when I pointed to random address.

We used to have computer viruses before. They were not escaping either.
