I've always said it's never the tech, but the incentives of an economic system that handsomely rewards sociopaths using this tech for extraction of rents.

so much of the blowback would be less if these execs hadn't just openly embraced the shittiest fucking fascists imaginable after a decade of bad chocies. They have no credibility on anything; I can't begrudge anybody who doesn't believe a word coming out of their mouths on any subject, ever.

Yep. There is no reason to trust anything they have to say and every reason to believe that whatever they do is for some kind of nefarious reason. They're just dime store Bond villain wannabes who are inflicting immense damage to society.

Realistically, if they really had something to offer people being skeptical of them would be beneficial to the entrepreneurs peddling AI as the next big thing. Skeptics often turn into the strongest advocates when something is proven out. Instead they DEMAND that we believe.

Yep, and they're causing immense shortages in RAM and other raw materials pursuing this pipe dream, which is having all kinds of disruptive effects in markets not normally associated with tech, like construction.
