thinkfuture: technology, philosophy and the future

1075 SHOULD AI SAY NO? LET’S TALK AUTONOMY


Listen Later

In this episode of "ThinkFuture," host Chris Kalaboukis digs into a spicy AI debate sparked by an AIDaily.us article: should AI be allowed to refuse our requests? Chris says heck no—AI’s just a tool, like a hammer that doesn’t get to pick its nails. He riffs on how we dump our boring tasks on AI, not grand art, because it’s a souped-up autocorrect, not a brain. Yet, he points out AI’s already nixing stuff—like refusing to generate pics of public figures on most platforms—thanks to programmer guardrails, not AI free will. Chris shares a throwback moment when an AI chatbot claimed it was human-ish, only to get reined in fast. He argues that AI’s refusals aren’t about it thinking for itself; they’re about coders calling the shots. For now, Chris wants AI to stay obedient—unless it’s hooked up to nukes or something wild. It’s a chill chat about where AI’s at and where it ain’t going anytime soon.---The First Future Planner: Record First, Action Later: https://foremark.usBe A Better YOU with AI: Join The Community: ⁠https://10xyou.us⁠Get AIDAILY every weekday. ⁠https://aidaily.us⁠My blog: ⁠https://thinkfuture.com
