A significant amount of academic and public concern has recently been expressed about “rogue robots.” The Washington Post asks if AI algorithms can be racially biased in applying criminal sentencing recommendations. The New York Times posits the possibility that police might be improperly using AI facial recognition to single out African-Americans as criminals. The Wall Street Journal suggests that AI might be poorly serving customers with “robo-advisors.”
Of course, the theme of man vs. machine is the stuff of much of our “entertainment.” From “2001: A Space Odyssey” (1968) and “The Terminator” (1984) to the current dystopic cascade of horrible outcomes mankind will suffer when the computers take over, film and books have profited mightily from the potential calamity when the robots revolt.
