I don't think there is no empathy here, but there are clear divisions on whether this tech will help advance humankind or further destabilize the society as a whole. To be perfectly honest, I absolutely love that particular attempt by artists, because it will likely force 'some' restrictions on how AI is used and maybe even limit that amount 'blackboxiness' it entails ( disclosure of model, data set used, parameters -- I might be dreaming though ). I disagree with your statement in general. HN has empathy and not just because it could affect their future world. It is a relatively big shift in tech and we should weigh it carefully.
