Agree with the criticism of this piece so far, but what really makes this piece laughable is the fact that the vast majority of proprietary AI is just open source AI that's been hidden behind an organization's firewall. So, this piece is arguing that the problem with open source AI is that people can see it. When it's hidden behind a firewall, it will magically become more transparent and accountable.
Makes perfect sense, right?
And while we're at it, the piece stinks of casual misinformation right from the first paragraph. AI isn't "curing disease", this is just nonsense hype. Why would I listen to the author if he can't get through his short introductory paragraph without spouting nonsense?
Par for the course for IEEE, which has always come off to me as a very self-aggrandizing, bullshitty organization.
