Re: reality around us and being hyperaware It's one of the reasons mental health issues are growing - being faced with all the bad things and your own powerlessness is not healthy. I think that's also the reason far-right ideology is on the rise: they over a world view, where it's easy to blame somebody else, admit no fault and reality isn't as bad as the mean scientist make it out to be.
Re AI: There are SO MANY awesome things we could (and can) do with AI. Fighting cancer, fighting wildfires, preventing over-fishing. Also, watching Star Trek Discovery, I once again feel in love with their ship computer, Zora. As on the Enterprises, this is how AI should help us.
Instead, it's used to take away work from human artists and experts, price gorge and to spread misinformation. I think a lot of people are hating on AI just because it's used for the benefit of the few, instead of the many.
