"To call for a future in which “AI” demands “unlearning” is to unmoor everyone from time and place and body -- who we were, who we are, who we can become. To embrace its version of “unlearning” is to surrender all learning (all agency, all accountability) -- about yourself and the world to someone else’s algorithm. The constant “unlearning” that “AI” demands is actually the foreclosure of any future where learning is possible at all."
