Beyond the Kill Switch: The Real Key to Ethical AI Development

As artificial intelligence becomes more prevalent in our daily lives, concerns about its potential negative impact on society have increased. Many have called for a "kill switch" to be implemented in AI systems as a failsafe measure to prevent unintended consequences or malicious behavior. However, is a kill switch really the answer?

In reality, a kill switch may not always be effective in preventing the negative impact of AI. It could also limit the potential benefits of AI by making it less flexible and adaptable. Instead, we need to focus on developing ethical guidelines and regulations that encourage the responsible development and use of AI, while also ensuring that humans remain in control of these systems.

We need to acknowledge the complexity of AI systems and recognize the limitations of human understanding. Rather than relying on a false sense of control through a kill switch, we need to work towards developing a comprehensive ethical framework that guides AI development and ensures that it benefits humanity as a whole.

Let's embrace the potential of AI while also being mindful of its potential negative impact. By prioritizing ethics and responsible development, we can ensure that AI serves as a force for good in our world.

Description: We learned earlier this year that #Glyphosate, the main active ingredient in Monsanto’s RoundUp herbicide product is “probably carcinogenic ” according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Use of glyphosate – which the EPA has deemed safe — has soared in the last two decades with the introduction of crops genetically engineered to withstand the herbicide. Glyphosate is also a main ingredient in a new product called “Enlist Duo” recently introduced by Dow Chemical. The report indicated studies that “sufficiently demonstrated” that this substance caused cancer in animals. According to multiple reports, Monsanto was well aware that this chemical caused cancer for decades yet still continued to sell it. As we have been reporting over the past several months, glyphosate is now even banned in many areas as a result of these studies. It was reported last week that Monsanto will be replacing their controversial herbicide RoundUp with another dangerous substance known as #Dicamba. According to Reuters, Monsanto is now dumping more than a billion dollars into a production facility that will distribute dicamba, the new chemical that will likely be replacing glyphosate.However, studies have indicated that exposure to dicamba increases the probability of lung and colon cancer.

Description: Monsanto & KWS are working on a new GMO sugar beet variety that can be sprayed with not one, not two, but 3 toxic herbicides. Glyphosate, glufosinate and dicamba. And they’re very excited about it. Sure they are. Their chemical sales go up and we get triple the toxins in our food. We call this INSANITY. BAN GMOs.

Description: #Monsanto is attempting to bribe US farmers who use a weed killer that is facing heavy restrictions. Critics say the perk program is meant to increase sales of a product that is believed to harm crops. The #American agrochemical and biotech corporation is offering cash back to US farmers who use #XtendiMax, Monsanto’s controversial #herbicide, while growing soybeans engineered to resist the weed killer. The promotional campaign promises $6 per acre in cash to farmers who lather their Xtend soybeans in XtendiMax and #VaporGrip, a herbicide based on a chemical known as #dicamba. One acre of crops typically needs about $11 worth of XtendiMax. Farmers and agricultural experts say the weed killer is ineffective and unsafe, contributing to a US agricultural crisis this year. When sprayed, the herbicide is known to drift away – often contaminating different crops unable to withstand the chemical. In August, farmers began posting photographs of fields of beans, peach orchards and vegetable gardens withering away. Millions of acres of damaged crops have been blamed on XtendiMax and other dicamba-based weed killers. Farmers have submitted more than 2,700 reports to state agricultural agencies claiming dicamba spraying has destroyed 3.6 million acres of soybeans, according to the US #EnvironmentalProtectionAgency (#EPA). The herbicide is also blamed for destroying other crops, such as cantaloupe and pumpkins. The cash-back offer comes as federal and state regulators are requiring training and restrictions for farmers who are planning to use dicamba-based herbicides in 2018. #NorthDakota has announced that it intends to prohibit the use of dicamba herbicides after June 30, 2018, and when temperatures top 85F (29C) in a bid to prevent the chemical from drifting away from where it is sprayed. #Missouri and #Minnesota are also considering placing restrictions on XtendiMax soon. Arkansas has proposed even tighter restrictions. As a result of dicamba spraying, 900,000 acres of crops were reportedly damaged in #Arkansas alone – more than any other state. Arkansas is now close to prohibiting dicamba sprayings after April 15, 2018.
