I see the topics of biased information and neural input bandwidth as unrelated as the current rate of bandwidth is sufficient. As you mentioned, humans have repeatedly demonstrated the ability to whip themselves up into a frenzy throughout all of recorded history. So it’s a bit strange to suggest we shouldn’t adopt a technology on the basis that it might encourage us to do what we are already doing.

Also filter bubbles in media have generally been created by quite basic algorithms that only meet the definition of AI when you really stretch it. You might argue that a more advanced AI might create more toxic bubbles, but it seems to me that our society has just about perfected toxic bubble creation and any further advancements in the field would suffer severely from diminishing returns.

Taking very Elon's words: “This was futile. I tried for years. Nobody listened.”. If going backwards is just not an option, we must be more conspicuous of the dangers of new high tech deployments. I think everyone here share the same feeling: thrill but chilling at the same time. It's Inevitable by the way, on the Kevin Kelly's sense of the word: this is our technium taking shape and we better learn how to deal with it fast, like it or not.
