A decades ago people trusted banks and financial institutions because they did not know what was going on behind the scenes. They just had to trust them. I think about how similar this feels today with Artificial Intelligence or AI.
People assume that being smart or intelligent is enough to make AI valuable. If a system gives us answers most people do not care how it came up with those answers.. What happens when AI makes decisions that affect our money the information we get and what we think about things? Just being good at giving answers might not be enough.
I might be wrong. I worry that systems we do not understand can create hidden problems that get worse over time. When people use tools they trust they change how they behave.. If that trust is based on not knowing how something works it can be weak. One unexpected result can make people ask questions they do not know how to answer. Why did the AI do that? What did it base its answer on? Who gains when nobody understands what is happening?
This is why projects like OpenGradient interest me. It is not that being open and honest guarantees results. It is that it changes what motivates people. When people can see what is happening it is harder to avoid being responsible.
The bigger question might not be if AI can get more powerful. It probably will. The question is if the useful AI systems, in the future will be the ones that know the most or the ones that let people understand enough to trust them.@OpenGradient
