Get That Creepy AI Stuff Out of My Life: Toward an Ironic Future of Premium "AI-Free" Consumer Goods

By: del Valle, Ivan

"I don't like AI." "I don't want AI in my phone." "Get that creepy AI stuff out of my house." If you've scrolled through social media lately, you've probably seen these comments popping up over and over. While tech giants are racing to build the most advanced AI-infused devices, everyday people are voicing a very different sentiment online-some are downright refusing to adopt products loaded with artificial intelligence.

Dr. Ivan Del Valle peels back the hype to reveal a rapidly emerging counter-movement. Consumers are not just complaining; they're actively seeking non-AI alternatives-and in many cases, they're willing to pay more to avoid those "smart" features altogether. This is the same irony we see in the organic foods space, where we fork out extra cash to keep chemicals at bay. But now it's happening with AI.

Why does this matter? Because billions of corporate dollars are being poured into AI development without factoring in the cultural backlash. In an era where "I don't want AI" is becoming a trending statement, there's a massive risk of product flops and colossal financial loss for companies that assume everyone's on board. The question is: will AI's breakneck growth outrun this consumer revolt, or are we on the verge of one of the biggest "tech lash" movements in history?
