So we're just sailing into a time where AI will get blamed for anything and everything and, no-one will get held accountable or punished?

    Oh for sure, they’re taking big tech’s lead.

    Tech has been blaming AI for layoffs for a couple years now, when they hired an insane number of people during and after COVID. They literally hired to lay off. I found this graph illustrative of the boom and bust.

    The people in this administration love when tech can get away with something (see the Cambridge Analytica scandal around 2016) because they will too.

    Yes. AI allows the user to separate output from understanding, accountability, and obligation. It can launder intention just as well as inattention. AI is the ultimate tool of fascism.

    Edit: But I should mention, this is not new. Institutions have been pursuing techniques for this long before AI. Everything Was Already AI
