You did an excellent job writing the article.

Thank you! I hope to get this one published in one of the big conservative online publications.

An interesting follow up article would be to take the common fallacies in logical reasoning and see if they apply to AI.

Some certainly would, i.e. Fallacy of Generalization

or..

Begging the Question (Circular Argument) We have all accidentally programmed an infinite loop in the past.

Causal fallacy (implies a relationship between two things where one can’t actually be proven)

Post Hoc “post hoc ergo propter hoc” (after this, therefore because of this)

Loaded Question (This occurs whenever a person asks a question which includes their desired outcome, against the position of the person answering the question.)

False Dichotomy (False Dilemma, Either/Or)

Equivocation (Doublespeak)(Kamala used this all the time)

Appeal to Popular Opinion (Argumentum ad populum)

Sunk cost fallacy (idea that past expenditures are relevant in making decisions about the future)

Red Herring (Introducing an irrelevant point)

Slippery slope (Anyone who has done financial or economic modeling has experienced this) I used to do a lot of “pro-forma financial statements for bank loans for clients.

Programming the algorithm that gives weight to the various assumptions would be really interesting.

You could offer up an entire series of this. Give it a catchy title, approach one of the more conservative outlets. This would be exposure for you and for them it would be elevating the dialogue on something they haven’t given much attention to already but SERIOUSLY should. As I said elsewhere you are on a roll with these articles, and you are inspiring me :-)
