There's some sampling bias at play because you don't hear about the less flashy examples. I use machine learning for particle physics, but there's no marketing nor outrage about it.

Almost as if it's artificial.

Sure, but people seem to buy into that very buzz wordyness and ignore the usefulness of the technology as a whole because "ai bad."

Beets, bears, Battlestar Galactica.

I'll scratch it or lose it, and if I don't, I'll have a pile of plastic crap I don't want. I'm not really worried about digital media being taken away, and I could find it again if need be.

I mean, I don't want to either. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Gerrymandering affects the house. It's the electoral college that affects the presidential election.

I dunno, I typically made friends with the people I worked on projects and studied with.

Seriously, their bias is right in the name.

Math was not invented. It's was discovered.

They do this all the time, it's really gross, take it as a badge of honor.

But that doesn't make sugar bad. It makes too much sugar bad, which seems to be what they were saying. Albeit, ineloquently. **Insert thought terminating insult.
