  I think it’s because of the hatred for AI, even though it’s just another tool. Because calling it a scam ignores the history it’s had since the 1960s.

  AI is software that can improve over time; if it can’t do something now, it will be able to do it in the future.

  Excessive hatred of AI will also cause people to stop caring about what happened to climate change. The problem persists, but it’s no longer talked about much.

    Yeah people drumming up fear about AI are mostly just ignorant, but there is validity in the massive increase in processing power required and its effects on the environment that doesn’t get talked about as much. Maybe AI can help us solve some of those problems when in the right hands.
