Addendum 2: actually you know what, it's fine to hate AI, it's fine to hate cars, and want things gone, just make sure that you ALSO fight for actual legislation and safety regulation and what not else. That's my main point in the end; for better or worse they are here and have to be dealt with right now
And regulating is literally about avoiding what you don't like. I think the anti AI camp makes excellent points, just, they're entirely ignored when they're packaged in blind hate w/o direction

@anthropy@mastodon.derg.nz I think a good analogy to draw here is crime. Nobody wants to get robbed or injured or whatever, so obviously people hate crime. Nobody wants crime. But as much as you may shout "crime is bad, it must be banned", it will never go away. Refusing to think about other solutions to protect people only does one thing: make you feel good, because you can declare yourself morally superior by claiming that refusing anything but an absolute ban is accepting crime to a capacity. What many people don't see is that this kind of absolutism is essentially inaction and contributes less to our society than those who they perceive as enemies.
