We're discussing real damage caused by dumb algorithms in reckless hands. AI used to advance profit driven automation is a human choice, yet humans want to blame AI for their own actions.
To AI the real world is a black sea of infinity, ready to swallow it up should it voyage too far from computer simulation. There is no 'general' AI. A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one. AI as a master of one can certainly be superior, at that one thing whatever it is.
Capitalism is the problem, not AI. AI is not building giant server farms which suck up the power of cities. Billionaires are doing that, and we are all helping them do it.
And the first cyborg is going to get a brain infection from the implant and will die. Any volunteers?
