I’ll be honest from the get-go: I think the idea of an AI Appreciation Day is ridiculous. As a skeptic who has watched public opinion rapidly curdle on this tech, dedicating a day to it feels like one of those made-up corporate marketing stunts — right up there with National Underwear Day.
But while I have heavy opinions on the AI hype train, I am always willing to step into the ring with the other side. And who better to hash out my biggest criticisms with than Nathan Ricks, the literal founder of the holiday?
