A possibility is a coalition: of people who refuse to use AI and who refuse to do business with those who use AI. If the coalition grows large enough, AI can be stopped by economic attrition.

Do people refuse to buy from stores which gets goods manufactured by slave labour?

Most people dont care, if AI business are offering goods/services at a lower costs , people will vote with their wallets not principle.


AI could be different. At least, I'm willing to try to form a coalition.

Besides, AI researchers failed to make anything like a real Chatbot until recently, yet they've been trying since the Eliza days. I'm willing to put in at least as much effort as them.
