I'm not one of those "all value in the universe" people, P(doom) for me does not have to be that bad. I would actually consider the inability to manufacture or unwillingness to manufacture certain things at scale in the US to count. Generally, my point is that agentic AI is not something I can really do much about, and other things have a combined P(doom) probability higher than it. The unwillingness in certain groups to use what they consider to be toxic or "forever" chemicals in the manufacture of physical products at scale that can make them world a better and less fragile place is something that could be worked in instead.
