That's your prerogative. The rest of us here find it reasonable though, so for the purposes of Diner discussion, that's what we'll use. Better than ice making in any event.

Ice making is quite simple and requires no voluminous verbiage that is the equivalent of "all these things might happen and things could be puttering along with no real consequence".
Most doomers down through the decades always attached cool side effects, all the way back through Ehrlich at the least. Even you speculated on actual consequences beyond what AI provided more than 15 years ago on peakoil.com.
WHy? Because the atraction of doom isn't in socialital simplifcation and other bland discriptions. Without MZBs AI collapse just becomes....Jimmy Carter's malaise.
