Article summarized by AI below: The article argues that artificial intelligence (AI) is not a threat to humanity, but a powerful tool to solve global challenges such as climate change, poverty, disease, and inequality. It gives examples of how AI is already being used to improve health care, education, agriculture, and energy efficiency. It also discusses the ethical and social implications of AI, and how we can ensure that it is aligned with human values and goals. The article concludes that AI will save the world if we use it wisely and responsibly.
The problem with AI is the problem with capitalism.

Absolutely. AI is a tool, it is as good or harmful as what people use it for. Many firms are trying to use it to extract monetary value and devalue existing labour (i.e. hiring editors to proofread Ai-generated junk instead of hiring writers).
