这个行业正致力于一种扭曲的追求——取代人类。我们不能把最好的工具拱手让给对方。不用我说，人们讨厌AI。
The industry is engaged in a perverse quest to replace humans. We cannot cede the best tools available to the other side I don’t need to tell you that people hate AI.
不满的清单很长：低质量的产品、欺诈、偏见、能力削弱、电费增加、环境破坏、剥削、网络犯罪等等。
The list of grievances is long: slop, cheating, bias, enfeeblement, electricity bills, environmental destruction, exploitation, theft, cybercrime, doom.
然而，对这项技术的抵制往往表现为因个人使用AI而羞辱他们，而对于制造这些机器的公司却几乎没有采取任何行动。这很令人困惑，因为那些公司正试图让我们变得过时。
But resistance to the technology has often taken the form of shaming people for personally using it, with precious little organizing against the companies building the machines. This is perplexing, given that those companies are attempting to render us obsolete.
高管们可能会反驳这种观点，用一些陈词滥调来解释AI将如何辅助人类工作，或者声称我们会找到新的工作。
The executives may contest this framing, offering some bromides about how AI will augment human work or how we’ll simply find new jobs to do.
但他们的真正目标是创建出远超我们能力的系统，让我们几乎没有竞争的机会。
But their clear goals are to create systems that so clearly surpass our abilities that we will have little hope of competing.
