Can Big Tech be tamed? The struggle to regulate AI

Coban, Mehmet Kerem

Authors



Abstract

Taming Silicon Valley by Gary Marcus examines the growing influence of AI, controlled by profit-driven Big Tech companies, on society and the dangers of AI’s unchecked development. Marcus’s insights and his proposals for stronger oversight, democratic accountability and regulation are compelling, though implementing such change will be an uphill battle, writes M. Kerem Koban.
