Believing that, say, the use of AI will primarily enrich billionaires that are already doing societal harm is not clouding one's view of AI. It is one's view of AI.
To say otherwise is to say that worrying about lung cancer is clouding one's view of smoking.
> they only likely hate the AI or CGI that they notice.
No, this is simply not true at all. I dislike use of AI even more when I don't notice it. My goal getting on the Internet is to connect with other actual people and their creativity. I want actual people to be more connected to each other, and AI makes that worse, especially when it's good enough that people don't even realize their are being intermediated by corporations pumping out simulated humanity.

That's fine. Nobody is forcing you to use AI. I dislike it when people force their ideas onto others.

It's too bad your goal doesn't include interacting with people who don't speak your language and use AI to translate for them. Or people who struggle with writing in general. I don't think it's as black and white as you make it out to be.
