Sir, – Like everyone else, I’ve been following the recent media coverage of invasions, wars, mass shootings, hackings and hoax bombing threats and the general summoning of ambassadors between countries to answer assertions of blame.

It all makes a mockery of the worries about AI being the end of humanity. At this pace, we will end it ourselves well before Skynet gets around to it. – Yours, etc,
