I think that discussions of this technology become much clearer when we replace the term AI with the word “automation”. Then we can ask:
What is being automated? Who’s automating it and why? Who benefits from that automation? How well does the automation work in its use case that we’re considering? Who’s being harmed? Who has accountability for the functioning of the automated system? What existing regulations already apply to the activities where the automation is being used?
