    Yes, which is exactly why it is such a good analogy to what the pro AI commentator meant. You care for it and not knowing doesnt mean you don’t care, you just can’t express it without sounding like a lunatic that asks every waiter if they spit in your food

      But that is not what has been said. It has been said: “You only start caring, after it is exposed.” And that was what I was responding and arguing with. Here the quote I do not agree with:

      People only care about AI when presented with it.

      The guy responding then saying what you said is a different person, with its own take.

        Yes, and I (and the other comment with the analogy) agree with you. The pro AI comment surely wasn’t meant in the way of the analogy. But the analogy explained it exactly right. Pro AI people act as if we wouldn’t care that somebody spits into our soup, except if we know it. But we do care even if we don’t know it, it’s just really hard to prove.

        So we are all in agreement here, except the first pro AI statement.

          Thanks for clarification. Guess I got confused here, because I expected the reply to be a counter argument.
