OK what is your stance towards AI? You always seem to be defending "it"

[–] joe@lemmy.world -1 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

My stance towards AI is complicated. I think it's an amazing technology with the potential to change the world for the better, but also the potential to change the world for the worse. I don't trust it in the hands of giant for-profit corporations, and think we should, among other things, legislate some regulations to ensure transparency and prevent it from being used in ways harmful to privacy and democracy. I also acknowledge that technological advances don't go in reverse, and AI is never going away.

Does that answer your question?
