Also, bad AI is equally worrisome as people often rely on it blindly.
I kind of remember people having the same take back around 2000 on the Web and search engines. Like, a lot of concern that just anyone could put up a webpage and that people might rely on them blindly.
And then later Wikipedia, because just anyone could edit it.
True but that took quite a while. Even then, misinformation was quite a problem and continued to be. I like the comparison because it highlights that healthy scrutiny and questioning are important.
