Both substances and AI can be used responsibly. It is not the fault of substances nor AI.

People is why we can't have anything nice. It sucks.

I have medical reasons to take opioids, but in the eyes of people, I am a junkie. I would not be considered a junkie if I kept popping ibuprofen. It is silly. Opioids do not even make me high to begin with (it is complicated).

I bet the downvotes are done by people who have absolutely no need to take any medications, or have no clue what it is like to be called a junkie for the rest of your life for taking medications that were prescribed to begin with.

Or if not, then what, is it not true that both substances and AI can be used responsibly, and irresponsibly?

"People is why we can't have anything nice. It sucks." is also true, applies to many things, just consider vending machines alone, or bags in public (for dog poop) and anything of the sort. We no longer have bags anymore, because people stole it. A great instance of "this is why we can't have nice things". Pretty sure you can think of more.

Make the down-votes make sense, please.

(I do not care about the down-votes per se, I care about why I am being disagreed with without any responses.)
