The majority of people don't care about quality. They want reinforcement (the very heart of LLM's) and quick answers as in "Don't make me think"

Being a "wealthy country", despite the wild concentration of wealth by a few who are actually profiting, and recklessly so, from AI and its disruptive power, means the corresponding loss of, or change wave shift of jobs.

Along with loss of jobs, comes real danger to local and national environments, not only a "see if I care" issue with the wealthy, but, along with loss of jobs, seems to be a demonstrable goal of the current administration.

So there you have it. Another tool to crush the average Joe, at a time when job and environmental destruction are well in progress, and even the slow on the uptake person realizes that this all is only making a very small part of America great, a gilded age for a handful.

Whether or not you love something really has nothing to do with whether or not the rest of the world will use that same thing to ruin the world.
