It’s legit scary to see tech approach the point where private companies might develop systems that could and in some way are endangering humanity as a species, and all their decision-makers are concerned with is corporate success.
Not to mention literally researching global warming before anyone else bothered, verifying it is happening and that humanity is causing it, then spending decades gaslighting our entire species into widely believing it isn’t.
