I agreed with the content of the essay.

Idk who chose the headline, cuz the author’s take is far more measured than that. (Probably an editor optimizing for clickbait?)

I would caution, though, that the author is specifically talking about:

  1. the creation of art
  2. the way AI is developed and deployed in our capitalist context

I think there are more valid concerns about AI beyond the scope of those two areas, but I can’t blame the author for focusing on their area of expertise.
