I haven't seen any backlash about AI being used to detect diseases better/sooner.
The fact that we see a backlash about something that treats humans as an API, and don't see a backlash about something that helps all humans, seems like there is no prevailing innovation-phobic attitude. No?
The industrial robots taking jobs thing is at least pragmatic to discuss - we could just accept the capitalistic inevitability of it, or we could talk about ways to move the human workforce on to other tasks.
- sqdbps 8y agoThe problem is that of general attitude, I mean this shit is cool, people should be excited about it, instead people are being trained to be pessimistic and to invoke some vague notions about 'ethics’ to justify aversion to change. Skepticism and questioning are fine but the media is trying to turn people into luddites because they feel they were wronged by internet firms.
