What Should Be the AI Industry's Top Focus? 5 Leaders Weigh in on the Next Year
From a high level, we need something akin to the medical Hippocratic oath, which governs doctors to do no harm. It's for others to decide whether that's regulation or something else, but we need a framing commitment. I often come at things from a narrative place, and I've always been struck by writer Isaac Asimov's Robot series, in which he weaves meditations around how societal principles and protections are included in the laws of robotics on an almost engineered basis. Similarly, we need someone to assert a foundational principle for all of us that AI shouldn't do harm. On balance, at the phase we're in right now, I see far more benefits than any actual realized negatives. I think what's going on in medicine alone should give people a lot of enthusiasm for the positive potential in AI.
