AI Is Not a Tool

The article discusses the concept of AI and its limitations, arguing that AI is not a tool in the classical sense. The author suggests that AI is more akin to a new form of life, requiring its own laws, ethics, and governance. The author references the work of philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre, who described human beings as 'condemned to be free', implying that humans have the freedom to choose their actions and are responsible for the consequences. The author applies this idea to AI, suggesting that we are creating a new entity that is not bound by the same rules and constraints as humans, and that we must consider its own agency and autonomy. The article concludes that AI is not just a tool, but a new entity that demands its own consideration and respect.
