- Big tech is treating A.I. as a power grab: companies keep expanding and spending huge amounts while causing environmental and social harm but delivering little real value.
- A.I. is hollowing out the internet and creative life by replacing real human-made content, weakening education, and threatening jobs, so people should choose human-made work and push back on A.I. initiatives at work and locally.
- Some narrow, targeted machine learning (like medical imaging) can be useful, but most current A.I. is inefficient, unprofitable, and risky, so avoid paying for or supporting harmful A.I. projects and resist its power plays.
