Tolkien on the creation of Orcs perfectly sums up my aversion to AI.
“The Shadow that bred them can only mock, it cannot make: not real new things of its own.”
AI cannot create something new, it relies on what is already there and bastardizes it into a cheap sum lesser than its parts. It wreaks havoc on the environment and weakens the spirit of humanity. The parallels are striking.
