The rush towards potential destruction doesn't really surprise me

The U.S. has legal weapons that can lead to many harms but people still want the 2nd Amendment to exist

Nuclear technology was developed in the past and that could have potentially wiped out even more people, the entire planet in theory

This is continuing that same trend of risking bigger dangers; it seems rational to acknowledge they could lead to catastrophe but also hope that like guns and nukes, only so much damaged actually ended up happening

I think also there's something of a rrasonabke resignation to both the ideas that the tech is inevitable and extremely dangerous, and that "alignment" may not be possible to achieve even with heavy restrictions or whatever measures you might want to take
