(Haven't read the article yet) but just from the title, my riposte would be that while AI might have the ability to save the world, many of today's habitually entitled, mendacious, parasitical tech companies will do their best to enshittify it as much as possible in as many ways as possible along the way, just as existing tech giants like Google and FB tried so hard to do the same for the internet.
It's not to say that they haven't provided much value too, but they just can't seem to help themselves in going from that achievement A and creeping they way to a wholly uglier "achievement" B, (let's call it Bullshit perhaps) over time. OpenAI is already mincing its way along this very path...
This all usually happens in the name of blandly self-serving terms like "user engagement", "monetization", "KPIs" and the most laughable of them all from companies that routinely lie and break all kinds of laws because the fines are cheaper than the financial gains, "social responsibility".
