If such people exist, they are far, far fewer in numbers than they were in the past. I also don't accept that nothing can be done about this situation. Inevitability and helplessness are beloved tools of AI hypesters (and others) but there's little evidence to support it.
Collective action and public opinion can steer Google off this path. Collective action can shape public policy that can stop or prevent wars. The only thing that enforces helplessness is apathy. And AI is pissing people out of apathy.
