The AI Revolution is here. Now What? | Breaking the Deadlock | PBS What happens when technology advances faster than the rules governing it?
As AI becomes increasingly embedded in our daily lives, Americans will face a fundamental question: will we control the technology or will it control us? Can its transformative benefits outweigh the risks to jobs, privacy, democracy and even our humanity? Through a series of hypothetical dilemmas, prominent voices from technology, culture, politics and journalism debate the ethical challenges posed by AI and search for common understanding about the profound stakes of a rapidly evolving technology.
