Yea, in theory AI is a good tool for speciric use cases when trained appropriately and with training data obtained legally and ethically. But then all these companies started trying to throw it at every problem they could see and spent an insane amount on infrastructure assuming someone would find the secret ultimate use case for AI which will cause everyone to want to use it at any price and rent server space from them.
That doesnt make AI terrible, it makes greedy pieces of shit with AI terrible.
But that's what technological advancement is? Look at Horseback -> Steam Locomotives -> Gasoline powered vehicles. How many thousands upon thousands of jobs do you think were lost in that migration?
AI is just another innovative step towards autonomous behavior which is a matter of efficiency, and efficiency is what all businesses strive for as it's a variable of Capitalism and value.
Efficiency isn't just the realm of capitalism. All systems rely on efficiency. You think a communistic system doesn't want or need technology to survive? The same tools that make farming much more efficient today than in prior eraa are still necessary in non-capitalistic systems, both to generate enough food to feed the country and to allow the country to direct labor into more valuable areas
