The capitalistic system in which much of the AI development is occurring doesn’t resemble capitalism imagined by Adam Smith. More accurately, it is a “Frankenstein” system as coined by John Perkins in which there are perverse incentives, monopolistic controls, and industry-owned governmental agencies. Given the potential power of AI to further centralize power, eliminate human labor, and disrupt our world, we have to ask “Is ethical AI possible?”.
