It reminds me of conversations I had ~15 years ago with people like my relatives about Facebook and similar sites. I tried to explain to them that privacy is priceless and they acted like I was a bit unhinged. Their arguments were usually based on the fact "it doesn't matter really" and "Facebook so convenient," and "How else am I gonna share photos easily?" They trusted Zuckerberg and they didn't really understand anything I was saying.
I got nowhere and it was no fun being looked at as if I was a cassandra spreading needless worry. I stopped talking to people I knew in real life about it. I realized we'd all learn the hard way. AI will be the same.
