my biggest complaint about AI is we didn’t ask for it. zero popular movements took to the streets to demand AI. no one sat around kitchen tables lamenting how hard life is without AI.
what people want is health care, housing, climate change solutions, etc We sit around kitchen tables wondering how to pay for college, get loved ones the psych and addiction support they need, or help the people on our streets who need homes
how anyone could look at the abject moral and political failures of tech giants in late stage capitalism and think jeez let’s let these guys factor this mess up into the stratosphere with zero regs is truly beyond me
