I appreciate some of Doctorow’s concerns about AI potentially
undermining human autonomy and the sustainability of AI investments,
but honestly, I’m not a fan of sweeping generalizations—especially
when no concrete examples are provided. From what I see in actual
studies and within the developer community, the opposite is true: AI
tools are actively helping people work smarter and fostering
innovation. The impact of AI is complex and nuanced, and if we engage
with it thoughtfully, we can overcome the challenges and really
harness its benefits—without throwing the whole thing under the bus.

I don't find it profound, sorry. We are in changing world, tomorrow
shortly it will be very different.

If you wish to do something better, propose a solution, make a paper,
win people's hearts and mind, and do it better.
