I'm not anti-AI, but I see the where it is heading

* Mass surveillance which suppress the freedom of speech. ex: Palantir

* Dumbing down people so they cannot think for themselves, so the narrator is in control.

* Dropping bombs on innocent so someone can loot resources.

* Huge environmental degradation due to data centers ex: ground water pollution in Texas, desertification, waste dump due to rare earth metal extraction etc. (Earth is already is in brink of a collapse)

All of the above sacrifices just for the benefit of few rich billionaires not for the community. At this point I do not see the benefits outweight drawbacks, if it is to go on, it should be highly regulated, more than healthcare regulations. And also should be community owned not privatized.

im quite concerned for the dumbing down symptom to take full effect. learn to code has become learn to read rofl
