I agree that anti-intellectualism is bad, but I wouldn't necessarily consider being AI negative by default, a form of anti-intellectualism. It's the same thing as people who are negative on space exploration. It's a symptom where it seems that there is infinite money for things that are fad/scams/bets, things that have limited practical use in people's lives, and ultimately not enough to support people.

That's really where I see those arguments coming from. AI is quite honestly a frivolity in a society where housing is a luxury.
