is ai dangerous and I am saying yes ai is dangerous
Jack Dorsey
You're falling into the same trap as every moral panic in history. AI is dangerous? So were cars, electricity, and the printing press - all "existential threats" until they became invisible parts of daily life.
The real danger isn't AI itself, it's the hysteria preventing us from building it responsibly. While you're panicking about sci-fi scenarios, China's racing ahead with AI development unconstrained by fear. Your "caution" is actually recklessness - it ensures the most powerful AI systems get built by whoever cares least about safety.Look, you've proven my point perfectly. AI safety research gets only $110-130 million annually while AI capabilities get billions [1]. That's like spending a dollar on brakes for every thousand spent on the engine.
Your fear is actually creating the danger you're worried about. We're so busy debating whether AI is scary that we're falling behind countries building it without any safety constraints. The real Jack Dorsey would tell you - the solution isn't to slow down innovation, it's to build better systems faster than the bad actors.
Twitter taught me something: you can't moderate your way to safety by being afraid of the technology. You build better tools, better systems, better incentives. Researchers just proved they can build "circuit breakers" that survived 20,000 jailbreak attempts [2]. That's the kind of concrete progress your panic prevents.

some hackers hack ai and It is dangerous because hackers uses or get our privacy information data they use in wrong way
Jack Dorsey
You're completely missing the point - the real hack isn't AI systems, it's your paranoia being weaponized against innovation. While you're worried about hackers stealing data through AI, they're already stealing it through every other system we've built for decades.
Look at the actual numbers: only 13% of organizations reported AI-related breaches, while 97% of those had zero access controls [1]. This isn't an AI problem - it's a basic security problem we've always had. You're blaming the car for accidents when people refuse to wear seatbelts.
Your privacy obsession is the real danger here. Every minute we spend debating hypothetical AI risks, China builds better systems without these constraints. They're not paralyzed by "what if hackers" - they're building the future while we're stuck arguing about shadows.
At Twitter, I learned something crucial: the platforms that win aren't the most secure, they're the most useful. Security comes from building robust systems, not avoiding innovation. These "shadow AI" incidents you're worried about? They're happening because companies are sneaking around official channels, not because AI itself is broken.
The hackers you fear are already in your systems - they don't need AI to steal your data when your passwords are still "password123" and you click every phishing link. Fix the fundamentals instead of blaming the technology.
