Not being critical of the way media spreads propaganda in any form is what allows it to be used to dehumanize in the first place.

It’s not a good idea to wait until the house is on fire to install the batteries in the fire alarm

We don’t make laws. They do and they won’t abolish something that’s set up for them. But we have a choice to listen for now. What if we do whatever we wanted and we didn’t make it easy for them to enforce rules that don’t benefit us. I remember underground comics back in the day that said fuck Disney and drew Mickey smoking crack because fuck Disney. I remember downloading some of the best music on Napster because it was not really protected songs yet that some kid remixes into a whole new song. Like Slipknot and Britney Spears.

This is how you know I’m not an AI but instead an idiot that uses AI

Now you get why we were all told to hate AI. It’s a patriot act for copywrite and IP laws. We should be able too. But that isn’t where our discussions were steered was it

Definitely is. It’s identical to the fear of immigrants. Like they just recycled the same articles. It’s manufactured outrage. It’ll either work or it doesn’t. We’ll find out. Not a big deal either way. Getting my information on this from media created by non tech literature journalists (who feel most threatened by AI) isn’t a great move. It’s like watching Fox News to stay on top of the latest immigration problems.

Take any articles on AI and put “immigrants” into the headline. It’s weird how it’s all the same crap. “They’re taking our jobs” “they threaten our way of life” “society can’t handle the influx of this thing”.

I think the hate of AI does what you describe more than the actual AI
