It’s not a simple A or B. There are plenty of reasons to be against AI, and they can depend on where you live or how you are affected by it. The citizens who just got told they’ll be left without electricity because it’ll be rerouted to a nearby data centre have good reason to be against it. As do the people affected by their noise. People concerned with the environmental impact, the rising prices of consumer hardware, the consolidation of power, their use for surveillance, propaganda, killing, discrimination, the proliferation of AI psychosis, carelessness and loss of skills, loss of jobs without a safety net, erosion of online discourse, increased distrust of scientific papers… The list goes on and on.
