Early depictions of AI doom are fascinating because the Christian origins of the myth are not yet well-concealed.<p>In the same way that Kurzweil portrays the Heaven of the singularity, <i>I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream</i> is an excellent Dante-esque exploration of the concept of Hell.<p>These unconscious cultural archetypes can be both illuminating and distorting, and I wonder how the relative literary diets of Gen Z, Millenials, Gen X, and the Boomers affect their thinking on AI risks.
