The problem about AI right now is multi-pronged.

But the main key problems are;

It's costing people's jobs. In a way, this is of no surprise because before AI, there were shitty bosses and CEOs. They were always there and they will always find any excuse, if any, to release you from your job. AI only merely accelerated it.

Data Centers/AI Plants take too much water. I like how people conveniently forget today, how much water companies like Coca-Cola and Nestle actually take while turning around, bottling said water, just to sell it back to you. And if anyone has watched How It's Made, you can find arguments everywhere in that series, about how much resources are taken to make everything we use.

My point is, is a lot of arguments that people bring up against AI, there's such a wedge of counter-arguments in them that negate the problem of AI itself. It's just demonized because people are disappointed that AI isn't magically fixing roads and potholes, I guess, I don't know. Society doesn't know what they truly want anymore out of anything, it's just the feeling in the moment of the current 'I want said thing' dominates their mindsets.

But the actual problem with AI shocks no one - shitty CEOs.
