The consumer-side AI that a handful of multi-billion-dollar companies keep peddling to us is just a way for them to attempt to justify AI to us. Otherwise, it consumes MASSIVE amounts of our energy capacities and is primarily being used in ways that harm us.
And, of course, there's nothing they direct at us that isn't ultimately (and solely) for their benefit--our every use of their AI helps train their models, and eventually it will simply be groups of billionaires competing against one another to form the most powerful model that allows them to dominate us and their competitors.
As long as this technology remains determined by those whose entire existence is organized around domination, it will be a sum harm to all of us. We'd have to free it from their grips to make it meaningful in our daily lives.
