The dominant shift in the internet of the last ten years was monopoly consolidation and a dramatic reduction in access to information since almost all of it is behind their walls. Mobile has extended these walls with mafia racketeering app stores and absolutely atrociously designed gambling-addict games, information stealing, and outright fraud. The dream of the internet died completely about five years ago. This overpaid google shill isn't worth listening to. Google had about a decade of plausable deniability on "do no evil". They stopped the charade, and we know what they are. Like sociopaths always do, they tell you and you should listen. AI is an even more intrusive, dangerous penetration and control of our lives, and a massive power grab by these tools of the very very very elite few. The guy is right: the internet WAS about access to the evolving body of human knowledge, WAS about sci-fi level capabilities and conveniences, and WAS a miracle. WAS. AI is the rocket fuel that accelerates the vector from the momentary point of near-idealism to the dystopian corporate control we are currently mostly in, that as a DOUBLE BONUS serves as fine grained total information awareness for all the state actors of the world, and likely a worldwide destruction of the last semblances of democracy.
