It is not the job of
technology to make sure everyone is fed. It is the job of technology to produce abundant food. It is the job of
public policy to make sure everyone is fed.
Technology produces guns. And citizenship requires that we agree to the lawful use of the gun by the police and the military, both of whom have to work within the parameters of the law. Public policy does, or should, determine the use of the gun.
Artificial intelligence is the same way. The public policy domain needs to stay vigilant. There is good use to which
artificial intelligence can be put. We are nowhere close to having too much artificial intelligence right now.
