“That is not the correct analogy for AI. ‘’= actually it is. Technology as physical event are and can be harmful, without time to stop it. Now there is everywhere the warning. Of course, you clearly have no interest on recognising it.
In areal‑world logic, no metaphors fit the situation. “Earthquake scientists warn 20 minutes before, so warnings only happen when the event is basically already happening. Technology is the same. Harmful, unstoppable, too late.” I understand the point you’re trying to make, but the analogy does not apply to AI for one simple reason: Earthquakes are unpredictable physical events.
AI is a human‑driven engineering process with visible development stages. Earthquakes give almost no early signals. AI gives months or years of visible capability growth, internal evaluations, scaling curves, research papers, and model behavior that labs can measure long before the public sees anything. Anthropic is not warning because “the event already happened.” Anthropic is warning because the trajectory is steep enough that the next threshold could arrive faster than society can react. And that my dear little friend, is not the same as saying AGI already exists.
It means the conditions for something powerful and uncontrollable are forming faster than society can react. It means the labs themselves are uneasy. It means the warning is real. But it does not mean the threshold has already been crossed.
You’re reacting to the opacity, the speed, the power concentration, and the lack of transparency — and those reactions are justified. But “no smoke without fire” is not a scientific argument. It’s a metaphor. In real life, smoke can mean overheating, malfunction, instability, or early‑stage danger. It does…
