By skyforbes I guess we all need to stink now?
If we used “AI panic logic,” every tub would have crime-scene tape on it.
AI-related deaths since 2019: fewer than 100 worldwide.
Bathtubs: hundreds.
Humans: tens of thousands.
AI: barely enough to fill a small bus.
Yet one Tesla fender-bender trends for a week with “BAN IT” headlines.
We don’t fear bad tech—we fear losing our monopoly on failure.
We’ve accepted human chaos as “normal,” but when machines trip once, we clutch pearls.
We didn’t outlaw cars, scalpels, or planes because they sometimes killed. We regulated them and kept moving.
AI isn’t the apocalypse—it’s the next seatbelt moment.
Panic solves nothing. Policy does.
TL;DR:
Bathtubs kill more people than AI. If we applied the same logic, society would smell terrible.
