Ashish Kothari argues that competing alone won't work anymore. AI development is already moving faster than regulators and academia can keep up, and businesses need to shift toward collaboration to stay relevant as the technology accelerates.
One of the things I worry about most is we've become a competitive species rather than a collaborative species. And as a business owner, you have to do your competitive analysis. But I always think of it as collabitition. These people are all trying to solve the same problem that I am, so we actually have something in common. And what if we could work together to solve that problem so that everybody had enough profit to keep going? Well, and I think it's that competitiveness that really concerns me around the future of AI because, as you were saying, Ashish, our regulators cannot move as fast as AI technology. It goes faster than humans. And so it's already out of the box. It's already doing things that we didn't tell it to do, and it will shut us down if we try to shut it down. And so we're already there. And so now the challenge for us as humans is to figure out how do we quickly adapt to this difference in human intelligence and artificial intelligence. And I think that academic speed that you were talking about earlier is one of those challenges. By the time we do the research, it's obsolete because everything about this technology has changed. And so we are going to need to adapt.
