There’s a general consensus about a few things regarding AI:
It’s here and it’s not going anyplace. The world will never be the same.
It’s extremely convenient to use at times, though people should realize that sometimes it lies.
The environmental damage it causes is huge.
In the hands of corporations like Palintir, it’s already being used for what could be government control and totalitarian purposes.
The conversation we’re having about it as a society is morally and ethically inadequate to the challenges it poses for the human race.
I asked Brian O’Kelley, co-founder of AppNexus and Scope3, to help us start to figure all this out. It’s not a conversation we should leave in the hands of those who’ve proven themselves careless about the fate of our democracy or our species.
Also, Brian has said he’d be willing to do a q and a zoom call with us about all this. Let me know in the comments if that’s something you’d like!
