A common argument I come across when talking about ethics in AI is that it's just a tool, and like any tool it can be used for good or for evil. One familiar declaration is this one: "It's really no different from a hammer". I was compelled to make a poster to address these claims. Steal it, share it, print it and use it where you see fit.

@axbom @tante I have a half written blog post about a hammer designed by the guidelines of Nir Eyal’s book Hooked. It is internet connected and it tells you the hammer stats of your contacts and keeps a leaderboard and encourages you to keep a daily hammering streak.
