    That was unnecessarily wordy to express only two complaints:

    AI causes environmental damage and AI was created by scraping content that the AI companies didn’t own.

      Did you read the whole thing? It’s about a lot more, such as corporate control, economic hardship, and alienation. It’s not a long read and you don’t have to care or agree with the author, but this is a disservice to their post.

      This blog post is a wandering train of thought on the topic of what tools are and why it matters to be even slightly more mature in how we think about them.

      That’s the second sentence, and it’s fairly clear that the author means to start the discussion of the titular topic, not to conclusively explore every ail of AI. Of which there are many, yet enumerated.

      Some people call this “food for thought”; I would agree.

        You can have a wandering train of thought without writing 2500 words repeating the same two ideas over and over and over.

        He’s not wrong.
