    Except NFTs were never used to nearly even close to the same amount as AI, it had much less usecases and the one that did “catch on” was idiotic.

    Crime is a symptom of a problem, not a technological advancement, apples and oranges.

    AI the tool is never going away in the same way the internet is never going away. (Barring our entire civilization collapses and we lose knowledge/connectivity/life lmao)

      “AI is never going away” neither did NFTs nor crime, nor anything else really. We should try to stop these awful companies from doing awful things.

        The point of the “its not going away” comment is because a shocking number of people think the solution to AI is to, I dunno, delete it.

        As a technology, it is out in the world. It isn’t going away any more than electricity or the internet. So any solutions to the real problems with AI that are essentially “make it go away” are essentially nonsense. Might as well propose wishing it away with a genie.

        “It’s not going away” is not equivalent to “there’s nothing we can do to solve the problems”; it just means that the solution has to be in a framework where it is implemented alongside AI.
