There's no irony or contradiction here. Some people are worried about climate change. Some aren't. Silly, yes, but I don't see the irony.

The irony is that there seems to be overlap between the two groups-- e.g. highly educated tech workers.

Is there? How are you making that determination?

I would tend to agree with them even without actual data. Just probabilistically there is likely some overlap.

Whether there's enough for calling it irony is probably a different question.

These aren't different people. These are the same people. They love AI and they fear climate change, but they don't know the connection.
