Patrick Gildersleve from the University of Exeter. Thank you very much for the panel. I’ve seen lots of stuff this week about very cool applications of AI tools and thinking about practical implications of AI and Wikipedia. AI is also a political project. And a lot of these hypercapitalist companies, as Lane was mentioning, have political alliances with authoritarian governments and military surveillance and such. And some of them are very explicitly against the commons — digital — or even using up other commons resources. How can we reconcile this, or think about resisting this AI as a political project? Should the community be doing this, and how? Thank you.
