In what world is this taboo? That critique comes back in at least half the HN threads about AI.
Watch any non-technical video about AI on Youtube and it will mention people being worried of the power of mega-corporations.
Your take is about as taboo as wearing a Che Guevara tshirt.
- pydry 2y agoIn the world of the mainstream media - the default media diet of most americans excludes Hacker News, funnily enough. All sorts of more taboo stuff gets said on hacker news. It's not exactly a cultural bellwether that ideas outside of the overton window are entertained here. Wearing a che guevara t shirt is similarly "allowed" in public, but the last article about him in the new york times is fawning admiration for his assassin. Criticism of capitalism is still taboo.
