AI itself has non-malevolent uses, but this doesn't. It's designed for negative uses.
ROT13 decryption does not have the same issues, and is not a good parallel here. Again, we're talking about a specific tool with specific use cases; a general algorithm being able to be used for negative ends is not the same as a tool being designed to be used for negative ends.
I also haven't mentioned banning anything; that's all on you. It really feels like you've jumped in with pre-prepared talking points rather than engaging with my comments.
To restate: "AI will benefit humanity" is a tough sell when so many people who are in to AI deliberately make tools that support the negative uses. This is an example of a project that superficially presents as high-minded, but is designed for exploitation.
