The New Stack wrote a piece on my recent Monktoberfest talk, "Intelligence is Not Enough":
https://thenewstack.io/bryan-cantrill-on-ai-doomerism-intelligence-is-not-enough/
When npub1y0wkqhdktvtvpdagcv4dl4czz7s0xl8qcrdpze9j83njuvu8agqqqhk6sx (npub1y0w…k6sx) and I talked about me giving this talk over the summer, I definitely wondered if AI (AGI/ASI) doomerism would be a passing fad, and if my talk would be left alone attacking a strawman. As it turns out -- and to my surprise and dismay -- the opposite occurred; here is hoping that the talk can serve as a rebuttal for those who sow fear of an AI existential threat!
