Why in hell are all these people on a Technology community who clearly don’t understand the reason why companies are all-in on the AI thing?
I don’t want to pull a “no true scotsman” here, but holy christ.

I think there’s a healthy discussion about technology. The fact that people are open to discuss their concerns about AI and the ramifications of the technology is exactly what is needed in a discussion. Technology for the sake of technology is not needed, that’s the play book these giants don’t seem to realize. They are rewarded for technology and their ability to destroy and wreck the power grid without having to pay restitution or taxes. It’s capitalism when in fact taxpayers are constantly the ones footing the bill with grants, tax levies, or holding the bag with bad contracts and needing to fix the problems these corporations leave in their wake.
