I think their concern is less about being AI made and more of the fact they don't want their business to be treated like someone's automatic money-making machine as if they were a graphic card abused by a crypto miner, most AI enthusiasts are pretty much the same as a crypto miner.

We all know how that went for people that wanted a graphic card for real jobs or play games but couldn't because someone hoarded them all to mine crypto and ended up being thrown away all wasted and useless after the market crashed and the hoarder probably committed unalive after losing all their money.

The problem just moved to somewhere else.
