"grateful that literacy, the printing press, computers and the internet became normalised before this notion of "harm" and harm prevention was"

Printing Press -> Reformation -> Thirty Years' War -> Millions Dead

The current fad for 'safe' 'AI' is corporate and naive. But there's no simple way to navigate a revolutionary change in the way information is accessed / communicated.
