    If I don’t know what that means I’m fighting against, I won’t be fighting against “techbros”, not even using that term. I might still fight against specific things they are doing…

      Id say the “bro” in techbros is more derogatory in this definition… like a techflog perhaps.

      in this particular context; Someone, typically an investor, who is convinced that their “tech” of choice (AI) is the future, despite the well documented cost and not-so-long-concerns of pursuing said “tech” (ie Winning the “AI Race” whatever that is), to the determent of well being of the environment and/or humanity.

        OK, if it is intended mainly as a description of investors and other “business” enthusiasts, then I agree with fighting against what they want.

          Investor Enthusiast, but yes… Also, Companies aren’t people, their CEO and Board of Directors are. And those would also qualify.
