Not sure its my filters working to remove nuisance news but the "singularity" plot and "AI safety" seem a bit less prevalent these days? Maybe the nature of these algorithms is finally diffusing to wider audiences?
The singularity stuff was mostly coming out of the lesswrong/miri/etc crowd. Maybe they've moved on, or maybe they've lost influence.
The AI safety stuff seemed like half an extension of that, and half early movers (eg openai) calling for regulators to hand them a moat. Between things like deepseek on the one hand and laws already being passed on the other hand, there's probably less use in spending energy agitating for moats now.
