We're in learning mode between the optimists and the pessimists about how much.

I think it's easier to be an optimist and believe that no amount is too much - because if an AI is better than you at something...well... using it makes you more powerful. If there are subtleties that are wrong, you probably weren't in a position to realise what they were anyhow. If one can make money out of it and only the other guy will lose their job then ... so be it.

Hence the optimists will push us all over the cliff as with many situations in the past - lets just build another coal fired power station or spray everything with DDT or use xrays to measure your foot size in the shops so you don't have to remove your shoes - and here's a nice round thing you can light on fire and breathe on to relax! We've done a lot of deadly things in the past before we've eventually learned at the cost of millions of lives. People got wealthy on it and we don't seem to have asked for our money back.

The issue is whether the outcome is something that can be ignored or hidden - whether it affects a small enough number of people at once to cause everyone else to say "I'm alright jack." We have evolved responses in the past from unions to campaigns to stop smoking to netzero efforts but none of it was easy or quick and none of it is over either.
