1 good thing coming of it, doesn't wipe away all the fucking harm AI is causing. If AI never blew up, the world would be better off. It's introduced a whole host of problems we didnt need, just for the sake of a few people getting richer.

    So what though? You don't have the option of getting rid of it, and it's a technology, not a person. Nuance is called for, especially if the alternative is refusing to acknowledge good things people do with it, or focusing condemnation on "AI" as a monolithic entity instead of the particular people and companies doing harm with it. Case in point, OpenAI banning this person.
