AI has a bad name because it is being pursued incredibly recklessly and any and all criticism is being waved away by its cult-like supporters.
Fascists taking up use of AI is one of the biggest threats it presents and people are even trying to shrugg that off. It’s insanity the way people simply will not acknowledge the massive pitfalls that AI represents.
Why is this always the reaction by AI advocates when faced with major problems in AI?
If you want to convince people that AI can potentially be a benefit and not a negative then denial is not the way.
This kind of hasty implementation of AI by tech bros should absolutely be ridiculed, since it has real world consequences.
