I doubt it. Regular folks are ignorant about those issues and what the technology involved implies. AI sounds cool until you realize every single action you take on your computer, every single word you say, everything you look at, is collected and sent to some machine which does god knows what with it.

That plus the ads. The fucking ads. I'm so god damn tl saturated of seeing ads everywhere. But apparently most folks have grown some kind of immunity to it??
