The thing is, gray goo is not a sudden thing. We can track the progress of nanotechnology, since it moves slowly compared to an asteroid or a pandemic.

By the definition of gray goo, yes.

How do you know the definition describes anything that is or will be?

nope. acknowledging expert authority.

BTW, this little point--> acknowledging that experts know more than us vs the claim that that is "arguing from authority" is a tension that's at the heart of a lot of anti-science today. It's a point that needs further education in the schools.

Apocalyptic theories are nice and unprovable because if they come true everyone will be dead and if they don't then we just have to wait another year. It's no different than promising heaven and hell.

I think if you asked most people talking about the dangers of self-replicating nanotechnology, they would tell you that it is likely to arise sometime after the creation of artificial general intelligence. the technical obstacles are very large so it is not an immediate threat, but it could plausibly be created by super-human intelligence in a very short time frame with little warning.

I wouldn't conclude that it's total bullshit just because it has become less prominent in popular culture, if that's what you're trying to say.

Probably in correct order (at least if you broaden "virus" to "disease" or something.)

But the first two would not likely destroy humanity entirely. Malicious AI could do it thoroughly, easily.
