    What’s the point with this artifial intelligence race anyways? Why is there a sudden need for that after all?

    I understand that AI as a tool can be useful for some tasks, but do we really need to go further than that?

      I think it’s a combination of things. One, they are good at synthesizing huge amounts of data and detecting trends, which is useful for surveillance if you’re not that hung up on being exactly right all the time. Two, they are very energy-costly, so their use drives up the price of energy, which drives up the price of fossil fuels.
