On the Brave New AI World

Here is just a partial list of the issues that will be created by AI;

1. Will it turn America into a surveillance state?

2. Will it lead to an arms race we could very well lose?

3. Will it create more or fewer food jobs than it destroys?

4. Will it lead to a vast increase in inequality?

5. Will it increase the power of fraudsters and scammers?

6. Is it ultimately compatible with liberal democracy?

7. Will we become so dependent on it that we lose our ability to think?

8. Will it become our master rather than our servant?

And you wonder why Americans are not embracing it with any enthusiasm.
