Artificial intelligence
The real issues are not those that dominate the public space. Nor the enthusiasm of a part of the technological scene, which more and more often sounds as if it is talking to itself, convinced that it is building a god. Nor the panic of those who see the apocalypse in every algorithm. Already sober, but stubborn insistence on answers to the questions: How much does this cost? Who pays? Who does it serve and what happens if it fails? The history of technology – from the steam engine to the nuclear bomb – has shown that major changes alter the distribution of power, economics, politics, and often societies, much more deeply than their creators initially understand.
