Quote of the Day
The future is up for grabs. It is not inevitable. AI isn’t a genie that can’t be put back into a bottle. How we use AI is up to us. Whether we use AI is up to us. The future can be ours, if we never stop remembering that the most important fact about a technology isn’t what it does, it’s who it does it for, and who it does it to.
