My stance for any new followers: "AI" isn't so much a (new) technology, its a narrative.
Its this narrative, this hype, this misinformation which is causing all the harm. And its far from the first time we've been through it.
The tech, also known as "machine learning" or more specifically "neural networks", is well established & already had some invaluable uses before the hype!
Please don't expect me to be interested in it being larger than ever now, or insist I must use it!
