    This piece, and 99% other AI-related news, is about large evil compaby though. People are rarely mad at the concept of machine learning (like the one being used in molecule folding or star categorization. those are rad). They are mad at how it’s being used.

      My point is that AI technology is just a tool. You could replace the anti-AI rhetoric with anti-big-company rhetoric without mentioning AI at all and it makes more sense and is more true.

      There is nothing wrong with big companies using tools in itself, even if using tools costs money. That is what makes the rhetoric luddite.
