Quoting Dario Amodei

Dario Amodei argues that the public’s negative view of AI is fundamentally a “crisis of trust” in companies, governments, and the tech industry, not primarily caused by warnings about AI risks.
He posits that this distrust is deeply rooted, going back decades, with AI being just the latest iteration of public suspicion that they are “cooking up some new way to screw them over.”
Amodei warns that “glitzy marketing campaigns” or positive spin are ineffective and seen as deceptive; instead, AI companies must “actually deliver on our big promises to benefit the world” to regain public trust.
