I ditched social media a long time ago and I don’t use AI if I can avoid it. There is a large concentration of power in a small handful of companies that should disturb anyone paying attention. It isn’t only about your personal privacy, but a sort of censorship in what you are allowed to see on-line. And it’s all in the control of a small handful of people whose goals are primarily to enrich themselves.
An article from Jacobin covers lots of territory. I’m more concerned about media concentration. These platforms pretty much decide what news stories we all read and view. That should bother everyone. A lot.
