From Climate Doom To AI Apocalypse: New Crisis, Same Fear Playbook
As we pointed out last week, the narrative around AI as an existential threat to humanity merely seems like a coordinated information operation that pairs perfectly with resurrecting a stalled bipartisan AI safety bill on Capitol Hill.
The flurry of doomerist headlines from AI bosses warning of humanity's end if AI is not regulated reminds us of a similar information operation around climate change: humanity was nearing its end if the West didn't buy more solar panels from China, tax the working class into submission, eliminate stable fossil fuel power generation from the grid, ban Taylor Swift's private jet, stop cows from farting and, of course, our favorite, ban gas stoves.
Yet here we are today. The climate crisis fearmongering narrative has run its course in corporate media, and Democrats looted taxpayers through the Inflation Reduction Act to fund their climate pet projects.

British people understand the climate crisis threat. Today I′m empowering them to tackle it | Andy Burnham (The Guardian)

With nearly £30m of funding, I'm giving communities power over local energy. They know the gravity of global heating, and they want to be part of the solutionAndy Burnham: UK must fully commit to reaching net zero by 2050On the day I became prime minister, I pledged to bring power to every postcode.

Climate Change Committee says government cannot expand airport without requiring aviation industry to clean up its emissions Heathrow airport should be allowed to expand only if airlines pay for the removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, the government's climate advisers have said.Building a third runway and new terminals, as some in government want to do, would breach the UK's carbon budgets and make reaching net zero by 2050 impossible, on current policies, according to the Climate Change Committee.
