Collaboration among industry, academia and government is key to ensuring responsible AI innovation and ethical standards, said Mr Pradeep Khosla, Chancellor, University of California, San Diego at AIMA’s 9th National Leadership Conclave.
I’d like to start by saying that AI is like the whole evolution of humankind and society is all about understanding nature, capturing nature, and using nature to improve productivity. Because we as human beings are very limited people in terms of our physical capacity to do work.
If you look at steam power, electricity, mechanical amplification, everything we did was to create like amplification of our capacity to produce more effectively, agricultural revolution was the same thing. So, I think if you think about AI, it’s about expanding our capacity, our mental capacity, expanding our ability to think in ways that we have not done before. Before we were the brawn part of it, now we are the brain part of it. So that’s what I think about AI.
