## Prologue

지금까지 경험하지 못했던 속도:

> In the fifteen years that I've written about the technology industry, I've never seen a field move as quickly as [Artificial intelligence](/pages/Artificial%20intelligence.txt) has in just the last two years.

누구는 유토피아를 얘기하고 누구는 멸망을 얘기하지만, 이런 극단적 예측은 당면한 현실의 문제를 가릴 뿐이다:

> Many [AI](/pages/Artificial%20intelligence.txt) builders say this technology promises a path to <utopia>. Others say it could bring about the collapse of our civilization. In reality, the science fiction scenarios have distracted us from the more insidious ways AI is threatening to harm society by perpetuating <racism>, threatening entire creative industries, and more.

소수 기술 업계의 막강한 영향력:

> Behind this invisible force are companies that have grabbed control of AI's development and raced to make it more powerful. Driven by an insatiable hunger to grow, they've cut corners and misled the public about their products, putting themselves on course to become highly questionable stewards of AI.
>
> No other organizations in history have amassed so much power or touched so many people as today's tech giants. [Google](/pages/Google.txt) conducts web searches for 90 percent of Earth's internet users, and [Microsoft](/pages/Microsoft.txt) software is used by 70 percent of humans with a computer. … AI future has been written by just two men: <Sam Altman> and <Demis Hassabis>. … Altman was the reason the world got [ChatGPT](/pages/ChatGPT.txt). Hassabis was the reason we got it so quickly.

독과점이 야기하는 문제:

> The concentration of power in [AI](/pages/Artificial%20intelligence.txt) would lead to reduced competition and herald new intrusions into private life and new forms of <racial> and [gender prejudice](/pages/Sexism.txt). Already today, if you ask a popular AI tool to generate images of women, it'll make them sexy and scantily clad; ask it for photorealistic CEOs, and it'll generate images of white men; ask for a criminal, and it will often generate images of Black men.

<에디슨> vs. <웨스팅하우스> 사례와의 유사성:

> The pair's journey was not all that different from one two centruies ago, when two entrepreneurs named <Thomas Edison> and <George Westinghouse> went to war. … In the end, Westinghouse's more efficient electrical standard became the most popular in the world. But he didn't win the so-called War of the Currents. <General Electric> did.
>
> As corporate interests pushed <Altman> and <Hassabis> to unleash bigger and more powerful models, it was the tech titans who came out as the winners, only this time the race was to replicate our own intelligence.

책의 구성:

> The second half of this book lays out those rissks, but first I'll explain how we got here, and how the visions of two innovators who tried to build [AI](/pages/Artificial%20intelligence.txt) for good were eventually ground down by the forces of <monopoly>.
