Others on the social media network shared similar criticism about a perceived lack of balance in the guest list, including Dr. Margaret Mitchell of Hugging Face. "It could be beneficial to have an AI Oprah follow-up discussion that responds to what happens in [the show] and unpacks generative AI in a more grounded way," she said.

A lot of people don't realize there are two wars going on.

AI vs anti-AI.
Corporate API AI vs Open source, self hosted AI.

Given this is Lemmy, I would think a lot of us would care about the latter, but everyone (here, and elsewhere) only seems to care about the former, and are content to give Sam Altman a monopoly and destroy the planet with his crazy "outscale everyone else" ideas (instead of, you know, making AI more efficient and training it legally and transparently).

training it legally

You seem to have quite the helping of trust for legal systems... 😅
