Forget AI ending humanity; what people are really worried about is AI taking their jobs — even if that's not exactly what's happening
I believe generative AI has tremendous potential, especially for helping us solve our most difficult problems, like cancer and maybe resources and climate change.

The Hugging Face incident should be a call to action.
