And while I dislike AI in everything, I don’t believe that AI was introduced to hurt me or most other people.

Then why are they losing money on it while it pollutes inordinately and denies people access to information? AI is basically signal jamming the entire internet, at great expense, with no actual path to profitability. They're certainly not doing it to make money, because as it stands they're all losing money right now. Oppression, in the form of information denial, and regulation of communication, appears to be the primary goal.
