There's little that's 'inevitable' about AI

Original: There's little that's "inevitable" about AI

A new essay argues that the widespread adoption of large language models and AI is not an unstoppable force of history, but the result of contingent choices by companies, investors and governments. The piece pushes back against framing that treats AI expansion as unavoidable, and the argument is drawing attention and debate among technologists questioning current assumptions about the technology's trajectory.

Why now: Debate is intensifying over whether AI's rapid growth is a foregone conclusion or shaped by deliberate decisions.
