AIThe claim that catastrophic AI risk is a marketing ploy
One post argues that dismissing catastrophic AI risk as a marketing ploy amounts to a conspiracy theory—and asks who would have to be involved in the alleged deception.
TLDR
A post challenges the marketing-ploy explanation by asking how far the alleged conspiracy would extend: to AI lab CEOs, marketing teams, employees seeking slower development, and organizations reporting AI-discovered security flaws. Its argument is that this explanation requires treating all those groups as participants in the deception. The author explicitly uses “conspiracy theory” literally, not as an insult.
