Two seemingly contradictory realities are true at once: - Most people find AI only modestly useful, a more clever Google search. - Many people building AI or using it obsessively worry it could severely damage or destroy humanity. Why it matters: We're living in an AI twilight zone. For many, the technology is simultaneously underwhelming in daily use and terrifying in its trajectory. - The gap between these two realities helps explain why confusion and fear are exploding across politics, AI labs and business.

Federal Election Commission records confirm that in December 2025, Murphy’s PAC directed $100,000 directly…Open
