7. "We should all want one team where all members care about the well-being of everyone else"...

... sounds suspiciously like AI chatterslop. It's magician's misdirection, but on a much grander scale, intended to lull the listener into apathetic indifference even as the AI bros pick everyone's pockets and quietly deploy impenetrable legal barriers that prevent any attempts to curb their depredations. There are already lawsuits over their brazen expropriation of Intellectual Property to train the AI chatbots. I recently received a letter advising me that some of my work may have been hijacked for that purpose, which allegedly makes me eligible to join a class action suit. Even if the suit were to prove successful, the payouts to people like me would likely be pennies, while lawyers bale their share without trying to count it.
Pardon my cynicism, but I'm nearing the end of my 79th circumnavigation of Old Sol, and I've got the scars and bruises to justify that assessment.
So there. Now get off my lawn!
