    It sounds like you are mad at our economic and societal structures, but taking your anger out on the tools.

    I can be mad at both the exploitative structures and at the toolkits that enable, further and synthetize them. They don’t need to be mutually exclusive, and in general it’s not useful that they are.

      So are you mad at power-tools? The internet? Cars? Because they are “building on the base of wage theft, human suffering, environmental destruction and empowerment of the oligarchies.”

      Why are you mad at one set of tools, but not the other sets of tools?

        Not really. What, you expect me to be mad at the wheelbarrow?

        Geez, the low meda literacy and the silly arguments of absurdum from the people who try everything to sell a cage for which they don’t have the keys is unprecedented.

          Then why are you mad at AI? Those fit all of the same requrirements that you listed above. Why do you think one is bad, but not the other?

            Do you really not understand concepts such as “necessary but not sufficient”? Just because I don’t like strawberry juice doesn’t mean I have to dislike all strawberries (or all juices).

            Or are you trying to sell AIs for someone else?

            Come on, be honest.

              Can you at least try to answer my question?

              You laid out a set of criteria: “…wage theft, human suffering, environmental destruction and empowerment of the oligarchies”

              All of the examples I gave meet that criteria. Why is AI different?

              Come on, be honest.
