I wish more people read so publications wouldn’t have to resort to doing puff pieces for skynet

AI can't collaborate. Collaboration is something two or more people, or to generalize, *conscious entities* do to achieve common goals. AI isn't a conscious entity and it doesn't have goals. It is a TOOL. You can USE an AI. You cannot collaborate with it.

Is it in your throat right now? I find AI tools extremely helpful for finding solutions to technical problems that are hard to resolve using conventional internet search tools. There are applications besides what is commonly discussed on social media. The Skynet is not falling. Chill.

Counterpoint: We should focus on the wholesale elimination of AI before it destroys us, after it incapacitates us.
