Had a brief look at it, the concept is great, but there are some obvious omissions. Some of the most awful AI usages are in the artistic realm, and if you make your living from the arts, then these will be scary to you.

Good on them for documenting abuses. It is sad that so many technologies get put to the wrong uses. I would rather AI was put to more use in astronomy or healing medicine than trying to control the masses and putting ordinary people out of work.
