Honestly, no sane person will have this happen to them. Someone with such strong delusions should not be anywhere near AI or even sharp objects. This person’s problem was not AI, it was their severe mental illness which was obviously not being treated properly for whatever reason.
I think that thinking has the problem of treating AI as this “weird occult book/tool about funny dealings”, and not “government, megacorp sanctified close-to-AGI super-intelligence tool for you to use for free because benevolence” as it is institutionally lied to be.
Sanity is culture relative. You’re absolutely right, but also, this is a symptom of the culture.
Not to mention how every “AI” company is actively participating in the surveillance of not only citizens, but of people in other countries, actively being used by the US military to pick targets for bombing, or how it’s being used to spread misinformation at a rate that would make the cia’s efforts in the 60s sound like that guy you met at the pub who has MANY opinions on geopolitics.
