ai is kind of a remote visage to intimidate & scare. computing in general is the risk here. computing, whether ao or other, has the potential to be Douglas Engelbart style augmentative. or it can be an element of control, mechanization, & prescriptivism.

ursala franklin delinated between prescriptivist & holistic technologies. i think it's a very important question of alignmemt for all computing, information, & connected technologies. it's hip & popular to stare into the crystal ball of ai, while it's still kind of fuzzy & only semi-defined, but there's a lot of places i think we should regard whether what we are doing is or could be augmentative, could alloy humans.


Its clear with the fighter pilot versus dtone tests its just replace
