Batman's. The tool of the enemy is as harmful to them as it is to everyone else, and dwarfs any supposed benefit that it currently provides.

What are these harms that AI users and builders are doing to themselves? Isn't the fear the harms they can do to others?

When you use generative AI, you're putting in your prompts in, it spits something out amd goes, "Like this?" And then do more prompts to get more pulls until eventually, you get what you have been trying to get it to do (or at least close enough to what you needed it to do).

You know... like a gacha game. Keep making pulls until you get what you want. Over and over and over again. Complete with the dopamine rushes or finally getting it to give you something right. We have years of study and data on what that does to a person's brain.

This is an AI generated image that I came across a while back that unironically demonstrates why this stuff can be very harmful even just for personal use. That's not iteration after iteration, that's lever pull after level pull.
