I agree with you, but at the same time, AI kinda amplify every bad aspect of our society. It show how much employers want to get rid of their employees to the point of willing to replace them with an experimental technology. It exacerbate climate change with resource hungry data centers. It accelerate enshitification. It show how messed up the whole investment thing is (AI companies investing into each other). Government want to use it to increase their surveillance of us. It make armies salivate at the idea of having an army of relentless robot.

Like you, I'm not necessarily against it, I don't think it's possible to stop progress and that is definetly a part of it. Still, I can't wait for the bubble to pop so that AI go back to being a thing instead of the thing.
