Ashish Kothari argues that human cooperation is what AI cannot replicate, and warns against letting automation replace jobs without strategy. He calls for regulation to keep humans central to the economy and technology development.

There's a very special thing that humans have always needed and what is core to humanity, and that's cooperation. That's where we have progress. That's where we saw energy being built and why we've survived for so long and why we continue to be high up on the food chain. It's because we learned how to cooperate. And we can't take that away because we can say, yeah, every single job could be replaced, but. But should it be replaced? And that's the question that we need to continue to ask. What aspects of the job can we say? Technology can play a part of that. But we shouldn't be replacing jobs just at this sort of wholesale level. It should be, how do we think strategically about what kind of economy, what kind of world we want? How can we make sure that there's human connection and cooperation that's still part of that strategy and then technology and the role that needs to play. So this is where the idea of not having any sort of regulations on that means that humans aren't at the. Still at the center of our future.
