It’s not great to breathe in, but neither are chemical pesticides. It doesn’t really get kicked up in the air once it’s applied unless it’s actively disturbed.
If you’re going to use pesticides, they all come with tradeoffs and different situations you can use them.
My biggest issue with this whole debacle is that the non-profit board hasn’t clearly explained itself to the pubic or its employees. There’s an ethics discussion that absolutely positively needs to happen and there needs to be some sort of governance in place around a myriad legal and moral issues from copyright to displacing human jobs and that can’t happen right now because we still don’t know what the fuck the board was trying to accomplish.
I’m all for responsible stewards of AI, but I don’t think this board is it. They’ve cut themselves out of any future governance ability in any event.
