CONCLUSION: UNLEASHING A TSUNAMI OF PROGRESS

AI is a colossal technology tsunami that is already striking all of us.

We have now entered a mythic moment, which is one of those times in history when new technologies, ideas, or energy sources are developed that represent a radical departure and a colossal improvement from the past.

As a result, it is no longer possible to make small changes; instead, major ones must be made. Specifically, this refers to our methods for producing, competing, teaming up, working, learning, governing, and well also starting and fighting armed conflicts.

We are familiar with the major prodigious eras that have occurred over the past 600 years, including the creation of the printing press, the scientific revolution, the agricultural and industrial paradigm shift, the nuclear power game-changer, the personal computing breakthrough, the internet disruption, and now our current AI epic period.

But unlike the printing press or the steam engine, which were both singular inventions, a technological super-cycle is what is powering this superlative moment.

It is our capacity to sense, digitize, process, learn, share, and act—all of which will be increasingly aided by AI. From your automobile to your fridge to your smartphone to fighter jets, that “Titan” will be embedded into everything and powering an increasing number of zillion operations each day.

We are entering an age of titanic acceleration, prodigious amplification, at a time of very fragile democratization.

Never before have so many people had access to so many low-cost instruments that increase their power at an ever-increasing rate while simultaneously permeating the personal and professional lives of billions.

Awe-inspiring possibilities exist for using these skills to address issues that at first glance appear insurmountable, such as climate change, fusion energy, and human biology. Scarily, AI can be used as a tool or a weapon, like so many other contemporary digital technologies based on software and semiconductors.

The last time we developed a technology this potent, we produced nuclear energy, which had the potential to either illuminate the entire world or wipe it off the face of the Earth.

But the central point about nuclear energy is that it was invented by governments, who together established a framework of checks and balances to prevent its spread to undesirable parties. Very far from perfect but still half working well enough.

On the other hand, private enterprises are leading the way in AI. How do we govern a nation and a world where these technologies that will be weapons or tools in every domain are under the hands of private firms, growing more powerful every day, is a central question.

Making sure that we are not “tossing the baby out with the bathwater” by doing it in a responsible manner is what has been on everyone’s mind since the beginning of this year. Which is rather late in tech time 68 years (!) after the very first basic concept for AI…

We will need to create what is referred to as "complex adaptive coalitions," in which corporations, government, social entrepreneurs, educators, rival superpowers, and moral philosophers all collaborate to determine how we can maximize the benefits of AI while mitigating its drawbacks.

No one member of this alliance can solve the issue by themselves. In comparison to conventional left–right politics, it calls for a totally different type of governance. And we will have to make the shift urgently during the worst great power tensions since the Cold War with additional culture battles erupting inside almost every democracy.
