# AI-Science Doomers and Anti-Science Doomers **Fear is politically useful because fear changes coalition behavior, voter attention, legislative urgency, tolerance for state intervention, regulatory preferences, and the distribution of institutional power.** > [!summary] The shortest account > This collection gathers sourced arguments that reject, ridicule, or materially qualify AI-extinction and technological-doom narratives, together with Bryant McGill’s author-supplied arguments for scientific literacy, infrastructure building, technological participation, and proportionate engineering responses to risk. The speakers do not share one political program. Inclusion records a relevant quotation and its provenance; it does not imply agreement among contributors or endorsement of every surrounding claim. Editorial antecedents appear in square brackets and are explained in each Reminder’s `Sources and Context`. The collection’s primary article is [[articles/The End Is Near — AI Doom, Anti-Science Panic, and the Primates Who Sell Technological Exile|The End Is Near — AI Doom, Anti-Science Panic, and the Primates Who Sell Technological Exile]], which develops the connection between AI-doom rhetoric, anti-science panic, fear-driven technological exclusion, medicine, infrastructure, cultural evolution, and the moral transmission of hard-won knowledge. ## Published corpus — 236 distinct Reminder objects -
