I once said AI has not killed anyone. I take that back.
Instead of talking about silly end of humanity fears that even the experts say is unlikely I think we should be talking about AI that has already been used to kill people.
We have also been distracted by the AI debate so much we have missed some important news about Russia. Bloomberg reported Russian President Vladimir Putin could use tactical nuclear weapons as a last resort in the Ukraine war.

If Putin uses a tactical nuclear weapon on Ukraine it could lead to nuclear war.
But we are talking about AI ending the world?
