if there’s a 10% chance that existing trends in AI continue, its the only news story worth covering. It’s like seeing a 10% chance of aliens heading towards earth.

Reminds me of that Stephen Hawking quote about AI. I'm paraphrasing here, but it's something like,

"if Aliens called tomorrow and said, hey btw, we're on our way to Earth, see you in about 20 years, we wouldn't just say, 'ok great,' and then hang up the phone and go back to our routine. The entire world would begin to prepare for their arrival. It's the same with AI. This alien thing is coming and nobody's preparing for it."

I think his analogy is very succinct.
