Well, I surely hope so, but I feel less positive if that means a nuclear power plant is parked before every new rushed datacenter

But in general I do believe AI has the potential to be a great positive for humanity on its own - if the open models stay strong and not only a few people control them.

I can see your reasoning. Unfortunately I see and experience everything wrong with AI in my daily life. People ask it what gifts to buy for their loved ones or use it as therapist substitute. Humans are not ready for this technology. A lot of us are even losing the ability to read properly (even though thats related to technology in general). It's extremely scary. The only advantage humans have is an extraordinary big brain and a pair of thumbs, we can't afford to use our brains less.
