Jordi discusses the rapid advancement of AI, suggesting that its disruptive impact is now so significant that political involvement is unavoidable. He highlights concerns ranging from sophisticated hacking attempts, as seen with the Boston Scientific incident and alleged Iranian military use of AI, to the implications of AI capabilities reaching extreme levels that capture public attention. Jordi believes these developments necessitate a political response due to the escalating risks and the need for new regulatory frameworks.
“So in my opinion, in using these continuously for whatever it's been now two years and writing about them, we've reached a point in the progress side where the disruption is impacting everything that you just mentioned. Politics have to get involved at this point because now the hacking's are reaching a level where it's obvious.”
“This is not going to stop. So at some point when the capabilities get to such an extreme level, they start becoming news items.”
“This is a political issue. And I think one of the most important things about the drama that's ensuing and all the back and forth that you recognize is this is a big midterm election story.”
