Ngl it's pretty depressing that pretty much any time I'm engaging with people outside of a leftist-focused environment like bsky or Mastodon and the topic of #AI comes up, it seems like the other people have no idea how harmful it is and they get very defensive if I try to explain why it's bad. It's important we not silo ourselves into thinking the average person gives a shit about anything that doesn't directly, negatively affect them (or even if it does, as long as they've been conditioned to blame the negative parts onto unrelated sources).
