Investors spend a lot of money on AI. Customers significantly less so.

> The money is telling me we are so dependent on AI now that we will say/think anything to tell ourselves that AI isn’t dangerous and any sign of danger is marketing.

We are not dependent on AI. If AI disappeared tomorrow, some companies would need to reorient themselves back ... and that is it. AI companies are really really trying to make it so we feel dependent on them. But, factually, we are not.

Some people love ai ... and many more hate it with passion. Or dont have strong feelings about the technology, but really hate the companies creating it and tech industry too.
