Re: Applications of AI KR future drafts

Amirouche
People are struggling with
- truth/factchecking
- consistency
- understandabiliy
- ethics/bias
Scholarly papers only show one side of the topics, what has not been
suppressed
Academia is heavily constrained, and controlled by the industry
The media mostly parrots, occasionally is critical about what is being done
and said
but it is worth reading the media critically because it is a showcase of
misery, pointing directly to the
problem spaces
