Every AI article is basically this kind of excuse:
“I’m going to ignore the moral, ethical and privacy implementation of AI and just focus on the practical. Morally and ethically, AI is a train wreck. But I’m not going to focus on that.”
(I think this particular article meant implications but I’ll stick with an unedited quote.)
I doubt it’s just me but practically speaking, social issues are not just practical but include the excluded categories. This is extremely impractical discourse.
