The Reality of AI | Pt.15 | AI can only be reliable when it is used ethically as a support tool and not as a go-to for everything.

The most disconcerting thing about AI – as is the case with all forms of technology today, is that used and driven by the right purposes and agendas, AI and Artificial Intelligence have the potential to be ridiculously beneficial to the whole of mankind.

However, the key to uncovering the genuine benefits of AI and all tech, is the realisation, acceptance and ethical governance that will ensure that tech and every form of AI that comes is only used as a tool that supports human life. Not as a replacement for it.

Replacing the ‘use’ of human life, under the direction of very selfish interests, is the pathway that all of humanity is on right now.

AI MUST only be the means. AI MUST NEVER be allowed to become the end.

Nobody who has responsibility for the governance and use of AI today should be allowed to have any influence under any rules, laws and regulations that will be created to govern its use at any level for the future.

If the intention and understanding of what those behind AI are and have been doing already was genuinely with the best interests of all in mind, those already involved would have ensured that we had effective and appropriate governance in place already.

For humanity to survive, with everyone at every level having the freedom of choice – even if only in the form that we have experienced or that we already have now, we MUST create a system of governance that ensures that no form of tech – and that only includes AI – can be used to replace the role of any human being and that it will only be able to support their role or make it safer for them to complete.

The only reason for doing otherwise is for the purpose of control or so that a profit can be made.

The value of human life must be prioritised above all.
