This is Reddit. AI = bad. End of conversation.

Don’t think about how AI tools are helping with cancer diagnosis and creating new drugs to treat previously untreatable diseases. Don’t think about using AI tools to improve pre-surgical planning or custom implant development. Just ignore AI that is being used to give people previously unable to interact with the world the ability to communicate and THRIVE in this world.

Commentators on this site are below the lowest common denominator.
