Is AI dominance inevitable? A technology ethicist says no, actually

The argument that AI is inevitable and its widespread adoption is necessary is misleading. Claims of technological determinism, where innovations become unstoppable once developed, have been exaggerated and oversimplified. The economic impact of AI on businesses is yet to be proven, and its role in higher education is uncertain. While AI shows promise in the sciences and medicine, its ultimate impact is still unclear. The argument for investing in AI development in national security is compelling, but it overlooks potential consequences and hinders arms control efforts. AI should be adopted cautiously and with a nuanced approach rather than blindly accepting its inevitability.
