"It’s quite the rhetorical suplex—opening a debate by declaring its central premise off limits."

This is how so-called "tech" company employees "argue"

One can see this every day in HN comments, and in online computer-related forum comments in general, where so-called "tech" company employees are overrepresented

No surprise this overuse of assumptions and lack of reasoning is also reflected in "AI" output

This is not "debate"

Skimming the article, the title seems mostly rhetorical.

But my first thought was "why don't you loudly ask why your schools and children are helping to fund and train the huge AI data centers which are so strongly opposed in so many places?".
