I like this take: "The illiterate of the 21st century are those who aren't luddites."
Those gullible people parroting the falsehoods of "AI" companies because they are lacking in their ability for critical thinking, are the modern-day analogon of people who couldn't write or read.¹
Especially to those who think that luddites just couldn't appreciate progress, or those who never heard the word 'luddite', I recommend the book 'Blood in the Machine' by @brianmerchant. But to everyone else too. 😊
Also read the book 'Resisting AI' by @danmcquillan.
¹ Except that you needed to be wealthy or privileged in another way to have a teacher who would teach you how to read or write. You cannot blame a medieval peasant for not being able to read. In contrast to that, your clueless manager or colleague who absolutely has all the privileges and could/should know better but nonetheless parrots the "AI" propaganda … they can absolutely be blamed for not using their brain power.
