    Whenever I see replies like this I read either

    “I have no ability to think through, or no interest in considering, the ramifications or evaluating risks before evangelizing a piece of tech”

    or

    “I’m too selfish to consider anyone else but myself”

      Or best of all

      “I’m too lazy to watch the video and would rather be contrarian in the comments”

        As a rule, I don’t watch or read things with clickbait headlines and this is clearly one of those.

        I’m happy to take part in the discussion though - because it is an interesting (and important) debate.

        I’ve watched/read plenty of articles on this topic. But if they can’t write a good headline, then I’m not going to encourage more of that by giving them an ad impression.

      The problem is almost always with our society and not the technology itself. AI is fine, the way people are using it and the fact that people need jobs to exist in society isn’t.
