And just think, a group of humans decided to build this thing. It wasn't just one crazy person's idea. This is a group of respected researchers at a respected institution, and I'd bet they specifically applied for and received a funding grant for this project.

And it just gets brushed away with "well, we're building this with benign purposes" as if that absolves any consideration of the impact of the general technology.
