I'm not him, but I would guess that he would respond by saying that we have a moral and ethical responsibility to remain in control of what we're putting into the world. If there's a conflict between the given timelines and how quickly a human can understand the problem and the implications of the decision being made, then the thing that needs to budge is the timeline.

> moral and ethical responsibility

We do not live in a system that values these

He probably has a lot to say on the topic, but it’s not up to him. The accommodations only extend to reasonable affordances, but do not entirely exempt the person from requirements to perform to the level of expectation for the job.

And Delaware would say, what responsibility? The state wants to sanction “AI-managed” corporations. https://oversight.house.gov/release/comer-investigates-poten...

These are weasel words that will be used to move the goalposts forever.

Guys like the one in the article will argue that we don't understand how AI works, because they don't understand how AI works.

They will never take the time to learn. If they do, they will invent a new goalpost.

I do strive to understand what I'm building, but probably not in the way you mean, or the way the luddites would demand.

The truth is, they have a result they want, and they will form new arguments indefinitely. The arguments aren't worth engaging.

Gas pedal.
