What about capitalism created AI? China is not a purely capitalistic society and they have AI too… I don’t see anything specific about capitalism that brings about AI. In fact much of the advances in it came about through academia, which is more of a socialist structure than capitalist.

State capitalism is still capitalism.

I’m curious why you see this as a problem created by capitalism, rather than another cause?

Would you have another cause you could posit? Surely the reason the marketplace is being flooded with AI generated books is because it's profitable.

Nothing besides greed could explain the extent to which people handwave and ignore the many obvious harms and failures and risks.
