As always, the problem aren't the tools. It's the psychopath executives, marketers, venture capitalists, etc, that are going to bring us Boring Dystopia 2.0 by using these tools mostly for evil. It's already happening. It's going to speed up, and it's going to permeate everything. Massive layoffs, intrusive surveillance, misinformation, etc.
Combined with the Internet of Shit...it's going to suck in brand new ways. And then people will be surprised and wonder how we got here.
Of course they're worried. They're being told to be worried.
