Not sure if this is the best community to post in; please let me know if there's a more appropriate one. AFAIK Aii@programming.dev is meant for news and articles only.

You hate AI because it is AI. I hate "AI" because it is peddled by snake oil salesman. We are not the same.

Sounds to me like you hate capitalism, not some ones and zeros

    I do hate unregulated capitalism.

    But that's not the only problem, even people in the non-profit space, as well as the supposed "communists" of the CCP in China are using and abusing machine learning techniques for the purposes of surveillance, oppression and exploitation.

    It's not the technology's fault, obviously. But at that point this becomes a bullshit "guns don't kill people, people kill people" argument.
