This means that no matter what anyone says, keep shitting on AI.

If companies see it as bad publicity, the technology is dead in the water.

PMO: Benjamin Netanyahu decides full IDF occupation of Gaza | The Jerusalem Post The Prime Minister's Office conveyed the message to the Chief of Staff: If this does not suit you, then you should resign.
