Ben Myers: Statement on Generative AI

"**Technology is not neutral.** Leveraging and normalizing generative AI is not a neutral act."

"Instead, I'd offer an alternative mental model: generative AIs are tools, devised and deployed by corporations to operate at scale, laundering content the corporations generally do not own with the active intention of reducing the need for, and the value of, human labor. Whether machine learning is like human learning is irrelevant to the real-world impact of its use."
