I am wonder why leftists are in general hostile towards AI. I am not saying this is wrong or right, I just would like someone to list/summarize the reasons.

Not mentioned so far:

  • the costs involved in creating a market competitive AI is high, restricting who can enter the market. Effectively funneling control of what the magic answer box says to a select few.

I will not be surprised when they collectively stop mentioning some facts, then slowly start to deny them, then start to gaslight you into thinking you made it up.

Ah yes. The company backed by a hedge fund. The shining model of the underdog if I saw one.

Compared to American "AI" firms it's positively a pauper. They put in a few million dollars, not multiple tens of billions.

But go ahead. Completely look past the obvious point so you can score Innarwebtube points. Just do it without me. Buh-bye.
