None of that questions if we should be building AI in the first place.

Who stands to benefit when AI is developed and has massive consequences on society? I think it is mainly capitalists and global elite benefiting and society losing out.

Also no mention of the environmental destruction that is needed to build and run AI.

I’m skeptical when AI leaders and big tech are behind it. They want to be part of the discussion to make sure their AI business remains protected and becomes cemented as one of the few solutions allowed to operate.

They did out feature Chrome by keeping Manifest V2 support.

AI is a monument to capitalist’s arrogance 🤣
