That 'frivolous' use is simply a side effect of a much more insidious purpose: Musk et all, use media to spread their message, to control the narrative. The frivolous use is convenient distraction form the real agenda which is control; to track your actions and spending habits.
A commentator said that it is becoming increasingly more difficult to start a small business in the face of Mega Corps like Amazon, Star Bucks, Costa and retail outlets are reserved only for those who can afford big online purchase and ordering facility or the resources to pay the rates.
To add to that, big corps register HQ's in foreign lands with beneficial banking and tax rates whereas local businesses pay full whack and get little or no tax breaks. AI for me is mainly about monopolising markets, industry and profit and worse... government because Democratic process may curb profit and hegemony. We can go back to DOGE where Musk awarded himself govt. contracts, extracted millions of records of personal data whilst stripping agencies of accountability under a veil of cutting bureaucracy and waste. It's dystopian and it's not the figment of the imagination anymore.
Peter Thiel does not believe in Democracy for example. He believes in technocracy. He preaches the merits of Technocracy up and down the US in well frequented venues. Autistic tech nerds lack empathy; they do not see the benefits of society and they exist out with it in a bubble.
