  Well, when most governments are going all in on AI it’s hard to take democracy seriously 🤷

    But thats less because of AI specifically, and more because it’s that governments are pushing for something that the people don’t want.

    You could replace AI in that sentence with anything the people don’t want, didn’t ask for, or are explicitly against, and it would still be true.
