Econ 4.0: Can AI be trusted?

I recently downloaded an AI (artificial intelligence) program to understand my likes so that it could send me the right recommendations. I love to read technical and medical fiction. I love to visit the Perdana Botanical Garden and ride on the Funicular Railway on Penang Hill. I like sci-fi and biographical movies." I then queried the algorithm to check which words or phrases it did not understand. The program processed the pointers, digested the data, and reverted with a single query: "What is love?" If that makes some of us smile, it may also make some of us sneer. That's the para dox of AI -- there are as many people who "love" it as there are ones who don't. On the anti-AI side are people like Tesla CEO Elon Musk. In 2018 at the US National Governors Association, he said AI posed a fundamental risk to the existence of human civilisation. On the pro-AI side, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg posted a video calling such negative talk "pretty irresponsible".
