AI AND PHILOSOPHY
In Our Own Image: Human Intent at Machine Scale
I do not think AI is the thing we are actually angry at. I think we are angry at what people are choosing to do with it, and then blaming the software because that is easier than staring at the incentives, institutions, and decisions behind the mess. Machine learning can help us detect disease, extend human creativity, search enormous scientific spaces, and give individuals capabilities that once required entire teams. It can also flood the internet with garbage, displace workers, amplify propaganda, and make terrible ideas scale faster than ever. The machine did not pick either path. We did.
