But there are things that we can do, both individually and collectively, to resist AI hype—in this hype cycle and the next, no matter what the technology happens to be, nor how it’s marketed. We can burst the bubble, through pointed questions and pointier ridicule. We can build up information literacy, both through our individual practices, and through supporting and learning from other informational institutions—namely libraries. We can collectively shape innovation towards benefiting people at large rather than enriching the few, through enforcing existing regulation and crafting new. … And we can and must resist narratives of inevitability through collective labor action and strategic refusal.
