They are a problem of distribution. For multiple reasons, including all the various forms of avarice and hatred, certain people are excluded from the great machines that feed, shelter, educate, and care for so many of us.

This horrible thing that we now call "economic productivity" is a direct measure of the damage we are doing to the earth's natural environment and our own human spirit. We don't need more of it.

Most problems that this imitation intelligence are being applied to have some element of social and environmental toxicity to them.
