The federal government is encouraging more people to use artificial intelligence. But this blind hype dismisses the harms caused by the new technology.

I agree, the conversation needs to mature a bit and shift away from full scale adoption vs complete rejection. In reality this technology will likely end up somewhere in the middle so let's start working out what the genuinely beneficial use cases are and where the problems lie.
Like a lot of automation, the main selling point is deskilling roles, reducing pay, making people more easily replaceable ...Of course it also means that you get a new middleman parasite siphoning off funds that used to flow to staff.
AI isn't being made by nice folks who want us to benefit, it's being made by capitalists who want to use it as a reason to pay us less. Your quote that they "need" more people using AI struck a chord with that in my thoughts.
