You read fiction, some of it is made to play on fears, i.e. to create more fearsome scenarios. The ratio between fearsome, and nice scenarios, is set by market.
You assume zero bias? See, the issue is that I don't think you have a whole lot of signal getting through the graph of unknown blocks. Consequently, any residual biases could win the battle.
Maybe a small bias considering that the society is full of religious people.
I didn't notice your 'we' including the AI in the origin of that thread, so there is at least a little of this bias.
Yes. I am not listing only the biases that are for the AI risk. Fiction for instance can bias both pro and against, depending to choice of fiction.
But how small it is compared to the signal?
It is not about absolute values of the biases, it is about relative values of the biases against the reasonable signal you could get here.
