The network effects of any sufficiently large technology means that once it's got enough adoption, and individual cannot really opt out in a meaningful way. Social media and smart phones are an example of this: yes, and individual can opt out, but 1) this is incredibly inconvenient, and 2) everyone else they know will _not_ have opted out, so the secondary effects of those technologies will still impact their personal and professional lives. AI feels much like smart phones and social media in that regard. Another net negative for society because some people wanted to make their mark on society.
