If I'm being honest the idea of farmers having to outsmart an AI doesn't upset me. Don't get me wrong, corporate interests using regulatory capture to block their customers from repairing equipment is an evil that needs to be defeated. I'm not supporting that.

But I do support the larger societal implications of AI and accelerating technology becoming prevalent in every facet of every person's life. That would make having a mindset of actively seeking to learn and embracing progress a required skill for basic everyday life. Yes, I know that is anathema to some and I think it's going to go really badly for them. I'm fine with that so yeah, optimist on all thing tech related.
