Mike Tyson was quite the troublemaker as a kid. He grew up in an area with a high crime rate, maintaining that high crime rate by getting arrested 38 times before turning 13. One of the times he got arrested he was sent to juvenile hall. That juvenile hall had a boxing program, and he noticed one kid bruised and bleeding after finishing a match, but that kid was smiling in spite of his injuries. And that's when Mike Tyson decided he wanted to become a boxer.
He's not afraid of things most of us would be afraid of. For example, when he spent three years in an Indiana prison, he called those years the best years of his life. But artificial intelligence does scare Mike Tyson.
Personally, I am more afraid of Mike Tyson than I will ever be of artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence may make some lousy art and flagrant factual errors, but there is no chance Microsoft Copilot or Google Gemini or any other AI chatbot will bite my ear off.
