The AI push started with the art world. Now we’re allowing billionaires, tech bros and machines to alter and destroy so much of what we hold dear. AI now grows at an exponential rate and without proper regulations could (will?) be devastating. And it’s happening in real time.

AI crosses boundaries of ethics, law and environmental sustainability. We must fight to curb it before it’s too late.

It's not minor at all.When I imagined a (far) future, it would be one where humans hardly had to work, was provided for, and could pursue things like art. And not necessarily good art either. Just let me draw for the joy of it?
Instead they failed at making tech that was beneficial and just made something that mimics art.

@worldwidewerner Yes, exactly. They’re failing at most things that now seem inevitable for a dystopian future. And humanity hasn’t learned a thing from all the warning signs over the years.
