Mark Cuban: Social media backlash to AI a bigger risk than the tech itself
Billionaire investor Mark Cuban argued in a series of X posts that public reaction to anti-AI content on social media is more dangerous than AI systems or agent swarms acting on their own. He claimed platforms like Meta and Google amplify anti-AI sentiment far more than positive coverage, even as those same companies profit from AI investment. Cuban said he isn't calling for a development pause, arguing it's not realistic anyway.
