Quite a lot of people, especially here on the Fediverse. You’d be wise to care too - AI is no friend to the working class.

*AI in its current form, owned by the very wealthy, right?

I mean, I suppose so. I can imagine a theoretical AI that isn’t trained on stolen work, isn’t insanely energy intensive, isn’t controlled by the ownership class, and doesn’t hallucinate wildly. But that’s so far away from what AI is in our current context, drawing that distinction feels like losing the forest for the trees, at this point in time.
