When Facebook releases an AI Model for free: "Based Facebook. Zuckerberg is a genius visionary"

When Facebook does something unforgivable: "It's a systemic problem. Zuck is just a smol bean"

Zuck can take his model onto his private island and talk to it instead of trying to be a normal human being.

Don't conflate me with the personality worshippers on HN, I'm not one of them, even though it seems like it to you because I also post here. You won't find a single instance of me glazing tech leaders.

What's with this reductionist logic? Nothing is ever 100% good or 100% evil, everything is on a spectrum.

So just because Zuck does some good stuff for the tech world, doesn't mean he's work isn't a net negative to society.

Oh he absolutely is.

I'm just saying that it's common in this community to attribute the achievements of big companies to leadership (E.g. the mythology of Steve Jobs), but dismiss all the evil stuff to "systemic issues".
