If AI can be used to dismantle democracy it can be used to make it flourish. People are the problem.

It's guns. The most effective way to diamantle democracy is violence.

AI is not stopping anyone from revolting. Guns and the military are.

Whar a stupid fucking take.

AI "guardrails" is even a bigger tool governments can use to dismantle democracy and kill freedom. The article starts by quoting the pope who isn't even a democratic ruler, he gets appointed by cardinals who are appointed by the previous pope. AI could have wrote a more useful article.
