  • I'm a privacy-minded programmer
  • I'm (...) aware of how these AIs function
  • I am not overly concerned about them

Objectively, these three statements form a paradox. At least one statement has to be false.

I'm not overly concerned because I know how to use these things. I know what they do, and so when one of them is doing something concerning I turn it off.

People are frightened of things they don't understand, and it's apparent that lots of people don't understand AI.
