2. At some point, will AI companies start bringing court cases against anyone who criticizes it?

Anti-tech extremism?
It's not just the tech that's the problem, it's the the amoeba style engulf and consume methods of these mega-data centers, that suck up all the energy and water resources in the area.
These data-centers are being built and brought on line at break neck speed, with no concern about how they affect people's lives.
Between the job loss, resource hogging, environmental degradation, and the massive gathering of data at all levels of people's lives, I think there is a lot to worry about.
I don't want AI to be just another way to control peoples lives and limit their freedoms.

Strict controls are needed right now, before it gets to the point where we don't have the right to object, let alone interfere, with what is happening to us.
