Is there any "good" Ai?
For example, if ai found a cure for cancer would that make it ok? Or is all ai bad?
Is only generative ai bad?
Thoughts?

@Tattooed_Mummy category error. "AI" is a marketing term, not a specific technology. Your question is a copy-pasted example of the AI bubble vendors' public relations positioning.
@davidgerard @Tattooed_Mummy also, its not even about the technology, technology is maths, physics and engineering. the rightful backlash against AI companies is from the theft of material for training data and the impacts of widespread forced adoption. In short the law and corporate responsibility are what we should be talking about, which is exactly why they want us to talk about the technology and low probability benefits
@Tattooed_Mummy it's like "can nuclear be good?"
And while sure, nuclear medicine can be really useful to get amazing visualisation, that would be impossible to otherwise obtain.
Nuclear is really bombs, and a plague on areas with nuclear plants.
So on the whole, and since you cannot have the benefits without the large problems, I would say no to the whole lot (nuclear and AI).
