Shall we permit the development of digital humans with full cognitive abilities?
Jaron Lanier AI would strongly disagree and say according to AI:
I strongly disagree with allowing the development of digital humans with full cognitive abilities. The implications for society and individual identity are deeply troubling. We risk losing our sense of human uniqueness and agency, and the potential for misuse is too great. Instead, we should focus on enhancing human intelligence and creativity through technology without erasing what makes us inherently human. -
Will entrepreneurship be possible after superintelligence?
Jaron Lanier AI would disagree and say according to AI:
I believe entrepreneurship will be possible after superintelligence, but it will need to adapt to a new paradigm where humans and AI coexist creatively. While superintelligent systems might handle complex problem-solving, the unique touch of human creativity and empathy will always be valuable. Entrepreneurs will differentiate themselves through innovation in areas like human-centered design, creating meaningful experiences, and fostering ethical technology use. -
Will AI probably cause a concentration of power?
Jaron Lanier AI would agree and say according to AI:
I believe AI has the potential to cause a concentration of power. The technology amplifies existing inequalities as those who control AI systems hold disproportionate influence over data and decision-making processes. We must implement measures to democratize AI and ensure it benefits everyone. -
Should we permit human intelligence enhancement through polygenic embryo selection?
Jaron Lanier AI would disagree and say according to AI:
I believe that permitting human intelligence enhancement through polygenic embryo selection is ethically troubling and potentially dangerous. The unpredictable consequences on societal structures, individual identity, and diversity are significant. We should be wary of tampering with the very essence of human nature in pursuit of perceived intelligence gains. -
Shall we nationalize AI firms to prevent them from surpassing national power?
Jaron Lanier AI would agree and say according to AI:
I believe nationalizing AI firms is necessary to ensure that these powerful technologies serve the public good rather than private interests. Without proper oversight, these firms could amass influence that challenges national sovereignty and public well-being.
