But I enjoyed it
Don't worry about that. Some people just made AI-hate their whole personality. They take pride in fact that they don't understand these new tools and can't use them. That's a relatively new trend, but it'll pass.
It's being used to replace human workers by the exploitative wealthy, and it's actively destroying the environment we live in. If you are not against "AI" (that is, generative machine learning models - there's no intelligence involved) then you are colluding with the robber barons.
That is caused by Capitalism, not AI.
Unless you are training your models at home on your own private server, the current generation of ML models are dependent on the capitalist corporate model. They are trained on large datasets collected by corporate surveillance using server farms owned and operated by corporations, by developers paid by those corporations.
The capitalism and the "AI" are inextricably linked. If you use any of their apps you are patronizing them.
