They plop their massive, polluting data centers into black neighborhoods
They have to underpay, overwork, and exploit workers in Africa just to get it to function
The “training data” is stolen work of creatives and academics
That data is then used to steal opportunities from those same people

Assuming from the Ted Chiang that you are into "interesting speculative concepts." In that vein, I've recently enjoyed Embassytown by China Mieville, Aurora by Kim Stanley Robinson, and The Disposessed by LeGuin. Also second The Expanse series for good page-turnery action scifi that is still smart.
