AI is Already Existential: The Case for an Anti-fascist Resistance
Manage episode 371215546 series 3305287
AI, as it currently exists, already poses immediate risks. We don’t need to wait on the singularity for AI to become existential – the resistance starts now! In this episode, Dan McQuillan (Goldsmiths Department of Computing) critiques AI from an informed, technical basis. We explore the risks of currently existing models, from shaping our subjectivities to eradicating marginalized groups. And finally, Dan makes the case for an anti-fascist alternative: radical care as the antidote to careless tech-solutionism.
