    Fair point, but doom takes ignore productivity. Utopia takes ignore misuse.

    Society already runs on recommendation engines. This is another step.

    Interesting take. bad for jobs in the near term, good for science long term. Mixed.

    Good if we govern it; bad if we just ship it raw.

    Education and trust erode first. That's the quiet risk.
