Arguing about AI is like arguing about bulldozers. It's just a tool.


Yeah but nobody argues that bulldozers are soon going to make human labor obsolete and force us to re-think our economic systems from the ground up.

There isn't trillions of dollars being invested into bulldozers expecting big returns. We aren't spinning up nuclear power plants to meet demands for bulldozer production. Bulldozers aren't challenging our legal framework for intellectual property.

Companies aren't trying to shove bulldozers down my throat when I try to do mundane tasks like write emails.
