The problem is that a healthy society is one in which humans have the capability to create value and feel appreciated, not be 100% healthy meatbags having everything provided for them while they consume endless content. The only reason why this technology is being created is for short-term profit: if we were making decisions purely on what is good for us (presuming we had the wisdom to do so), we would be much more careful.
Honestly, does anyone believe that the good for society is being considered at all when a researcher writes a paper? No, of course not, they are only concerned with increasing the size of their CV and satisfying their own amusement.
