Oprah will screw up the AI story

Anil Dash criticizes a yet-to-air Oprah special on AI, anticipating a biased presentation focusing on commercial interests. He foresees a lack of historical context, labor perspectives, consent discussions, and accountability, framing it as a promotion rather than a fair analysis.

• Oprah's upcoming AI special will likely emphasize recent commercial AI technologies.
• Potential conflicts of interest for AI coverage are mentioned with ties to Sam Altman and Bill Gates.
• Labor issues and AI's impact on work are predicted to be overlooked in the special.
• Training data consent and AI-generated errors are expected to be underplayed.
• The use of AI in military decisions and accountability is assumed to be excluded.
