Nah. The math is all the same, the models can be the same, it's all just the application. We don't like AI applied to bullshit capitalist profit driven goals, but those exact same models are being used to tangibly improve the world in other applications.

It's like saying hammers are evil because people can murder people with hammers, which is ignoring the entire industry of construction workers. It's just in the case of AI, it's way more powerful than a hammer, so the implications are much larger depending on the application.
