AI is just a tool. It's like a computer. Right now it's possibilities look limitless, but soon we will know the limitations and it will just be another tool in our toolbox. It will drive some people out of jobs... mostly for the betterment of society, but the disruption will be hard for anyone who is working one of those jobs, so there will be complaining. For example, is it really good for society to have people reading prearranged scripts off a screen at massive soul killing call centers?

As will all technological innovations there are advantages and disadvantages. Learn to adopt the advantages and look to fix or attack the disadvantages. IMHO, the biggest issues will be in privacy and monitoring, so we should be looking for laws and protections we look to put in place to shield ourselves from this.

If you don't like it, don't use it. But this will be like computers, robotics, and cell phones. If you go full Luddite, you'll be left in the dust in both in culture and job prospects. This is change and change is scary, but the old adage of "adapt or die" still holds true.

Adobe Reader has been pretty mid for a long time. You might want to check out Foxit Reader, better performance and more free features.
