@BlueMonday1984 in his sidenotes can underestimate how promptfondlery the general population is. You can walk past people talking about the singularity in earnest, but when AI misinformation goes out into the real world, there will be a much bigger wave of backlash against tech companies than has been seen until the peak of the bubble, which we are now past. I predict that the coming election will turn more people against AI as the tactics that are being utilized to interfere get revealed.
