The airplane was invited to transport people. Radioactivity was discovered, and supporting on health treatments, was the the sole objective...
Easily, A.I. is way more powerful than airplanes and radioactivity combined, in a digitally unstoppable world, with unprepared systems, capable at least to define sanctions, prohibitions and punishment for the wrong use of such wonder.
Is our society ready to deal with the economic, political and educational impact that this unregulated effort could cause?
As "The Godfather of A.I." who resigned today from Google said:
“The idea that this stuff could actually get smarter than people — a few people believed that. But most people thought it was way off. And I thought it was way off. I thought it was 30 to 50 years or even longer away. Obviously, I no longer think that.”
The topic is also under the analysis of Steve Wozniak himself:
The capacity of automating machine gun turrets, exponentially increase the power brute force attacks, severely deepfake individuals, while contributing with medical diagnosis and scientific efforts towards questions like genetic diseases, cancer, etc.: a great dilemma.
Personally, with the current legal frameworks, I can't see a sustainable and positive effect of this gigantic effort, besides filling the pockets of somebody else, getting richer and richer.
Without International Law efforts, it seems clear to me, that A.I. will do more bad than good.
