I absolutely disagree. Technologists understand the true nature of AI and can thus predict its uses. Moreover, if technologists realize this problem of how AI will inevitably be used, their voice will be a powerful message that even those who enjoy math and science are fearful of AI.
- bsenftner 3y agoNope, nope. Technologists do not understand the true nature of AI. What technologists know they can rarely communicate, and even less so to a general public. Technology developers are not some special deep understanders that ordinary humans are not; we just have more time spent in our specialization than they, as they have in their specializations which we do not. If anything, technology developers, due to our specialization's time requirements and the traditional lack of professional communications training, tend to be weaker communicators than the general public. The last people you want explaining AI to a potentially fearful general public is weak communicators, such as the AI developers.
