What we need to stop pretending is that AI will be Skynet, some amorphous type of thing that will think for itself and destroy the world.
That type of talk is utterly ridiculous.

What am I wrong about? It looks like we're agreeing...
The paradigm that has to shift is how currency works. We (humanity) need to change that to be able to progress, or things will continue towards catastrophe (climate catastrophe notwithstanding). For AI to be usefully paradigm shifting, it needs to do something like that. Get the wealth out of the hands of "the 1%" (ancient term I know but it fits)
I'm not saying I am hopeful this will happen or that it's even possible, but other than discovering infinite free energy, I don't see what else can happen. If it's not this, or aliens visiting to fix everything, maybe it's AI
