I don't like saying ai is a threat, I feel it lends credibility to the magic 8-ball child porn machine. I think we should focus on making people who claim it has use for anything besides masturbation feel like idiots.

we we're doing fine accidentally bombing things prior to now: https://www.atomicarchive.com/almanac/broken-arrows/index.html

How would you feel if someone gave the decision of who to nuke to a magic 8 ball porn machine?

See now why it's a threat?

The difference is "autonomous weapons"

Imagine a self charging drone flying around autonomously and deciding on its own who to kill. But it hallucinates (because AI is dumb) and frequently thinks that school children are valid military targets.

Now imagine tens of thousands of them, like we're seeing in Ukraine and Russia. All autonomous murder bots hallucinating around the globe.
