Part 4/8:
Gat notes that the transition to an AI-driven society may not happen smoothly. He warns of a dystopian outcome—a world where AI amplifies existing inequalities, driven primarily by human greed. He suggests that the capitalist nature of our economic systems might not align with a future benefitting the vast majority, highlighting the potential dangers of a technologically advanced society where power dynamics remain unchanged.
However, at the same time, Gat is hopeful. He believes that the emergence of AI can lead us toward a utopian future if consciousness and ethics grow alongside technological advancement. He advocates for a future where AI can boost human capabilities and enhance our ways of living without replacing the essential elements of human connection.
