Imagine a world where a handful of tech giants and nations hold the keys to the most powerful technology ever created: Artificial Intelligence. They control the flow of information, dictate the rules of the global economy, and even possess the power to weaponize AI for military dominance.
This isn't science fiction.
We're on the cusp of a new era where AI could become the ultimate tool of power, and right now, only a few players are at the helm.
Companies like Google, Microsoft, and OpenAI are racing ahead, developing advanced AI technologies that could reshape our world.
But what if this immense power falls into the wrong hands?
What if it's used to create a new era of digital colonialism, where the AI-powered elite have an insurmountable advantage over the rest of us?
The stakes couldn't be higher. We need urgent international cooperation and strong ethical frameworks to ensure AI benefits all of humanity, not just a privileged few.
We need to prevent AI dominance from becoming a tool of oppression and inequality.
The future depends on it.
A real-world example
“Big tech is turning to old reactors (and planning new ones) to power the energy-hungry data centers that artificial intelligence systems need.
The downsides of nuclear power—including the potential for nuclear weapons proliferation—have been minimized or simply ignored.”
