Recently on LinkedIn, I saw a comment that I thought was really thought-provoking and interesting.

This comment was made by Mr. Meheryar Tata. He's a CTO and also has a financial background. I think he was a CA as well.

So, let's get into it.

What he said is that AI, by itself, cannot have accountability structurally because it has nothing to lose. Only humans and corporations can be accountable because a broken promise has economic consequences. In the long term, this means that the only remaining job will be risk underwriting. You will receive a premium to be held accountable when things go south. Basically, insurance .

This is an extremely thought-provoking comment, in my opinion.

Because what he's essentially saying is that semi-autonomous systems will do most of the jobs of the future.

Driving a car? AI will do it. Balancing the books? AI will do it. Teaching? AI will do it. Surgery? AI will do it. Arguing for justice?…
