Indeed. Yoann should have done this in his native French and encouraged others to assist with a more "traditional" translation into English. But it seems to me that the boat has sailed and AI cannot be uninvented, perhaps thankfully because otherwise we'd have to be dragged kicking and screaming into a world where electronic computing does eliminate drudgery.

Should we not be focusing [ss?] on 1. Preventing the elite from appropriating AI technology and denying it to the plebs; 2. Adding quality and morality to the use of AI and 3. Identifying where AI should NOT be applied (and how to enforce that)? We have the 18th century industrial revolution as example and 21st century education and communication as tools to retain and enhance rather than eliminate what we sense as "good" in humanity, only to allow a minute minority of greedy freaks to snatch it all from us and replace it with an Orwellian dystopia. And we are doing it to ourselves...

Lucio, a believer that Luddites are still the victims of a bad rap.

PS: we are creating God (again!) in our image. And once again we are allowing the worst trait to be reflected in It. Is that the best 8 billion people can produce?
