I don't think it's inherently bad. We don't need to use double the world's energy to power it (as we see with open weight models) . We don't need to centralize it in trillion aire companies. We don't need to leverage an entire global economy on it. We don't need to use it to replace human labor without a proper economic model.
Those are all aspects of greed and stupidity. None of that is inherent.
