    Why Silicon Valley (actually mostly just San Francisco) says AI could kill us all:

    60% - So they can get the government to restrict GPU sales to China which means far less competition.

    40% - They genuinely believe that a rogue AI could deliberately or inadvertently do something that could wipe out a large portion of humans such as launching a nuke, which prompts retaliation nukes.
