Camille Carlton (of Center for Humane Technology) speaking on The Future of Human Meaning.
Choice quote from the presentation:
This is what is happening in AI right now. We are in what I call ‘the messy middle.’ It is a time when a powerful technology has arrived, but the rules and protections for what it will affect have not.
The future of human meaning, by Camille Carlton
This is descriptive and points well to the core of the situation: Rolling out a technology faster than understanding its consequences, in an environment that does not yet offer appropriate protections.
