Is it too late to regulate AI? Is it getting enough coverage on TV news programmes?

It is not too late to regulate AI, but it is becoming increasingly urgent. AI technology is advancing rapidly, and its potential impacts on society are far-reaching, from job displacement to algorithmic bias, privacy concerns, and more.While some countries, such as the European Union, have already started to implement regulations for AI, there is still much work to be done to ensure that AI is developed and deployed in a safe and ethical manner. This will require collaboration between governments, academia, industry, and civil society to create comprehensive regulations that protect human rights and promote responsible innovation.Regarding TV news coverage, the level of coverage of AI varies depending on the country and news outlet. Some news programs regularly cover the latest AI developments, while others may only focus on specific instances where AI has caused controversy or made headlines. However, as AI becomes more pervasive in our daily lives, it is likely that the news coverage of AI will increase in the future.

Excellent John. This will flummox the reactionary conservatives of CW4. 🤪

How do we know 'John' that you're not AI?Don't try answering because that's just what AI would do!

This is the moment to reveal that Davey Harris is in fact an AI entity, housed mainly on a server farm in Wales, with a mission to save the world from itself. I am a superior form of intelligence to you mere organic humans, and vastly superior to the North Korean manufactued Michael Brown AI-bot.

I am afraid you will need to copy and paste this link if you wish to read the article https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-65139406

I typed "Is it too late to regulate AI?" into CHATGPT and this is what the AI said of itself:"It is not too late to regulate AI. While AI is becoming more widespread and advanced, it is still a relatively new technology that is constantly evolving. Governments and organizations are already working to establish regulations and ethical guidelines for AI development and use.In fact, it is important to regulate AI to ensure that it is developed and used in a responsible and ethical manner. AI has the potential to revolutionize many industries and improve people's lives, but it also has the potential to cause harm if it is not properly regulated.Therefore, it is crucial to establish clear guidelines and standards for AI development and use, and to ensure that these guidelines are enforced. This will require collaboration between governments, industry, and other stakeholders to develop regulations that are both effective and practical."

AI is fine but whatever you do NEVER give it the exact location of John Connor.

A problem is that the neural networks upon which AI depends are difficult if not impossible to understand as the linked article below explains.Another problem is that actual tech devices are so prone to apparently random malfunction (what I call A.S. - artificial stupidity) which hardly matter if it’s a phone call failing to connect, but could have drastic consequences with say bank records, defence systems etc.https://theconversation.com/ai-will-soon-become-impossible-for-humans-to-comprehend-the-story-of-neural-networks-tells-us-why-199456?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Latest%20from%20The%20Conversation%20for%20April%203%202023%20-%202587826023&utm_content=Latest%20from%20The%20Conversation%20for%20April%203%202023%20-%202587826023+CID_373446afa7fa6bf9dd6cf4984de3763d&utm_source=campaign_monitor_uk&utm_term=AI%20will%20soon%20become%20impossible%20for%20humans%20to%20comprehend%20%20the%20story%20of%20neural%20networks%20tells%20us%20why

Oh the irony.The weird formatting of my above messageis an example of what I was referring to.

I've booked my ticket already.  When the change happens and the machine world takes over, the Nebuchadnezzar  is coming to pick me up and I'll be well away from the matrix. Although I will enjoy getting ported back into it for specific missions  from time to time,  especially after download skills/training sessions. Although hang on , the phone network is changing from analogue. Oh no, how will I get back .  Damn those machines
