A totally non-techie coworker asked me today if I had heard of "that AI that broke out" and I had to do a little damage control by explaining that it's not like the scifi horror scenario they were imagining after seeing it on the news. (it was the OpenAI/Huggingface security fuckup) I compared it to an industrial chemical spill. Bad, sure, but a spilled toxic chemical won't continue and take over the planet, and I think that metaphor landed pretty well.
