Chapter 4. What about responsibility?
If a self-learning AI programme for health tells people to eat a certain food -- and 200 of them die -- who is responsible? A bot can't be put on trial, sued, or jailed. Neither can the "owner" of the bot, nor the engineers who created it (self-learning!).

If nobody is responsible, where will there be justice? Or is responsibility not an idea we'll be able to apply to AI?

Chapter 3. If people think and act as if AI is a train barrelling down us and we can't help but get run over -- that's what will happen. If we realise that the digital revolution is steerable through the creation/enforcement of legal frameworks, then we can make sure AI is implemented where it will help most and hurt least. Without that understanding...SPLAT.

A German political treatise on what value "work" has in today's society and looking forward to the repercussions of the -- happening far more slowly than planned -- cyberworld of AI and online/gig work. Right in my wheelhouse!
