What I have tried to do is place the current debate of "AI risks" not in the popular yet deceitful and disorienting context of "what is, really, intelligence" and other such bull, but in the context of what can we as society allow people to do to other people using algorithms.

The creeping "AI / human equivalence" ideology adopted by some tech bros is a throwback to very dark periods of dehumanization which had dire consequences. I hope people wake up to that threat and nip it in the bud.
