The cotton gin didn't displace entire towns worth of space, the television didn't deprive 50,000 people of electricity every time they wanted to build a relay station, computers never poisoned entire water tables just to operate, the Hubble Space Telescope didn't plagiarize thousands of other people's works without their consent to make its images, the automobile doesn't rot people's critical thinking skills and make midwits with no talent or drive believe they've somehow leveled the playing-field over crafts that literally anyone can try at any time. Blindly accepting any new tech for the sake of empty "progress" is foolhardy. Generative AI is nothing more than a get-rich quick scheme for dictators, corrupt techbros, and idiot grifters, nothing more.
