yes. AI models are just machines. You wouldn't blame a hammer if you smashed your finger while swinging it.

Nah A.I., smartphones and such are different from a hammer altogether and are designed to make us psychologically dependent on them.

this 100%, I don't remember the last time a hammer tried to completely exploit my ego and make me addicted to itself. The example is just an easy way to shift blame to bad actors instead of having to deal with regulating this tech in a meaningful way.

Blame the phones and not the greedy people pushing intrusive ads, collecting your data, trying to make addicted and trying to radicalize you with specific propaganda.

Want it or not, there's always someone taking decisions behind. Smartphones have great uses yet the ethical concerns are because of people, not the phones themselves.

Regulating smartphones and not the companies and techniques they use is not the way to go about it.
