# Mark Zuckerberg’s AI manifesto is exactly why people don’t like AI

**[TechCrunch](https://daily.dev/sources/tc)** · 7 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

TechCrunch's Russell Brandom critiques Mark Zuckerberg's 6,500-word manifesto on personal AI and 'personal superintelligence,' arguing it exemplifies why the public distrusts AI. Brandom points out that Zuckerberg's optimistic scenarios — AI tutors democratizing education, AI lawyers equalizing justice, freemium compute access — ignore real, documented harms like AI-enabled academic cheating and the poor UX of surge pricing. He contrasts Zuckerberg's approach unfavorably with Sam Altman and Dario Amodei, who at least acknowledge AI dangers and attempt trust-building. The piece argues that Zuckerberg's refusal to acknowledge unintended consequences, combined with his and Facebook's existing credibility deficit with the public, actively damages the broader AI industry's standing.
