In the 1990’s in corporate America, the outsourcing of lower-cost workers (for telephone and tech labor, especially) to nations other than the United States, was a trend. It turned out to be NOT such a good idea, due to cultural clashes and linguistic misunderstandings.
AI will play out similarly. Linguistic misunderstandings and software glitches will lead to lawsuits. When financial losses from lawsuits reach critical mass, live people will have to sort it out.
So regardless of whether the world’s biggest attention-whore (Trump) urges the US government to regulate AI, the profit motive will drive the trend.
The profit-motive and attention-motive drive Trump’s shenanigans. In the latter case, the only thing worse than being talked about is… NOT being talked about! Here’s the song his handlers are singing now on his behalf.
MY RIGHTS
sung to the tune of “My Life” with apologies to Billy Joel and to whomever else the rights may concern.
BlackBALLED by my old friends. We used to be real close.
Told ’em I am making America great.
I called the shots. Bought the House. I rocketed to the top post.
Now the GOP’s going to take over every state.
America, don’t worry. I made us again great.
Don’t you dare tell me I can’t have-a-third-term.
I don’t care what you say anymore. I know MY rights.
I say we can’t have fake news. This is my show.
I always said you have to let me have another chance (I always said you had to).
I always said we’re a victim of immiGRANTS (I always said).
You’re always wrong (always wrong). I am so strong (am so strong).
And you can’t speak your mind. I’m the greatest of all time.
I will tell Fox it must cover me in every last race.
Then I’ll tell you you must do whatever I say.
And sooner or later I’ll own outer space.
Anyway, it’s okay. I get sued every day.

Go. Eff yourself. It’s MY rights.
