I'm rather curious to see how the EU's privacy laws are going to handle this.

At some point, you have to ask yourself if "being a world leader in ai" is worth everything you are sacrificing for it.

AFAIK, trading human creativity for AI art and ai poems is a shit trade. For a lot of reasons. But primarily because AI art is kind of boring.

As for military use of ai... You don't need grama's cookie recipe or violating people's humanity to build it.

All applications of ai & assimilated aren’t nefarious… I’m shopping for a solution to help my company classify its data and do data discovery. I really hope I find a solution - which will likely be based on ai - because the alternative is either we don’t do the activity or the guys that will do it will be miserable. No one should have to spend days looking at very old data stores and wonder what’s in it - and then be accountable for the classification.
