Essay Argues AI Is a Normal Technology, Not Superintelligence
Original: AI as Normal Technology (2025)
A 2025 essay by researchers at Knight First Amendment Institute, Columbia University, argues that artificial intelligence should be understood as a normal technology, similar to electricity or computers, rather than an autonomous force or imminent superintelligence. The piece urges treating AI through ordinary regulation and institutional control, framing current fears of runaway systems as misplaced. It is drawing attention and debate among technology commentators.
Why now: The argument challenges prevailing AI existential-risk narratives, prompting debate among technologists and policy watchers.
