AI is the enemy of humanity.

Technology is what people do with it. If you want to ignore all the potential for medical and technological advancement that can cure cancer, give us a  room temp super conductor and maybe put us in a post wealth utopia, sure. 

It might go very bad but these type of reductionist takes don't advance the conversation and leave nuance in the wind. The reasons why it is or isn't the enemy of humanity have nothing to do with some ai generated song on Spotify. Technology can and will do a lot of good and a lot of bad, but when someone makes it some extreme black and white thing it just seems ideological and they don't actually give a shit about the potential for good.
