    Recommendation or value judgment

    “We see few risks in the current regime, but fewer reasons to tempt fate by blithely assuming that anything that we might invent can be dealt with.”

    Our reading: We should not blithely assume that anything we might invent in AI can be dealt with.

  2. Assessment: Can’t be checkedSaid

    Causal claim

    “AI, like any technology, is subject to the risk of unintended consequences, quite possibly more so, and the wider we open Pandora’s box, the more risk we assume.”

    Our reading: AI is subject to the risk of unintended consequences, possibly more than other technologies, and expanding its capabilities increases that risk.
