As artificial intelligence technology continues to advance at a breakneck pace, it will only become better, cheaper, more ubiquitous, and more dangerous, write Ian Bremmer and Mustafa Suleyman in a new essay for Foreign Affairs. “Its arrival marks a Big Bang moment, the beginning of a world-changing technological revolution that will remake politics, economies, and societies.” This pace of change also makes AI more difficult to regulate. “Artificial intelligence does not just pose policy challenges; its hyper-evolutionary nature also makes solving those challenges progressively harder,” Bremmer and Suleyman argue. “That is the AI power paradox.” And with policymakers already behind the curve, they warn, there is no time to waste in developing new regulatory frameworks: “If governments do not catch up soon, it is possible they never will.” |
