As we witness a global backlash against Artificial Intelligence, it’s becoming alarmingly clear that the cautionary voices were right all along. The question now is not whether AI is a bubble but rather what happens when that bubble eventually bursts. It might be almost tragic, as one researcher and critic has repeatedly warned us for years.
The world has been somewhat blind to the adverse impacts of AI. It has been heavily investing in its development without careful considerations of the potential drawbacks. Now that these drawbacks are surfacing, the world is in shock. It almost feels like a tragic irony.

What the backlash confirms is that the researcher had been right in urging the world to approach AI technology with more caution and foresight. Read More
