The issue is that AI is being invested in as if it can replace jobs. That's not an issue for anyone who wants to use it as a spellchecker, but it is an issue for the economy, for society, and for the planet, because billions of dollars of computer hardware are being built and run on the assumption that trillions of dollars of payoff will be generated.

And correcting someone's tone in an email is not, and will never be, a trillion dollar industry.
