2. There’s a lot more internal opposition inside the house of the tech giants than you might think, even at the upper-middle power levels of the biggest companies. One of the highest priorities of the trillion-dollar AI marketing blitz has been to create the illusion of consensus and inevitability: “all the tech people, all the smart people, •they• all agree. Who are you to stop it, you lowly tech employee, you ignorant city council member, you effete academic, you ignorant peon?” But it’s smoke and mirrors and noise. There is neither consensus nor inevitability.
If we want to oppose this destructive AI bubble, we should understand that we have friends everywhere.
