We became better at constructing nuclear power plants, and nuclear bombs became cleaner. What critics are saying is that as AI advances, our control over it advances as well. In other words, the better AI becomes, the better we become at making AI work as expected. Because if AI became increasingly unreliable as its power grew, AI would cease to be a commercially viable product.
