    These guys are terraforming the planet to be hostile to ours and many (most?) other species as a side effect of their technology.

    Don’t need AI for that, and it’s not just cars and trucks, either - all transportation (including rail, ship, air) only accounts for 25-30% of fossil fuel consumption. Yeah, AI’s making it worse, so are people’s latest PS3-4-5 gaming consoles, and air conditioning, and steel foundaries, concrete, etc.

    This is not some remote future possibility or granola eating hippie concern.

    Yes, actually, it is. The granola eating hippies were, and still are, right.
