He’s pretty explicit in that regard. He even added an interesting point at the start of the article : most people he knows who actually work with AI and know shit about it are not boosters. It’s an important distinction that Ed doesn’t ignore.
He is against the over hype of “AGI” and skeptical of the hundreds of billions that have been poured into it for sinister reasons. He’s not denying that the tech has uses, but rather confronting the value of those uses with their actual, non subsidized cost.
