A thing I think a lot in the conversations about AI is this:

You don't have any choice. Good or bad. It's here. Get over it.

I know that back in the day, people said automobiles were bad and evil and costing the buggywhip makers their jobs. Unfortunately for them, the decision to use cars had already been made.

I do AI with fervor because I live in the real world and the decision has already been made. You can't stop AI by pretending it's optional.

Adapt or die.
