Google CEO Sundar Pichai warns society to brace for impact of A.I. acceleration

When asked whether society is prepared for AI technology like Bard, Pichai answered, “On one hand, I feel no, because the pace at which we can think and adapt as societal institutions, compared to the pace at which the technology is evolving, there seems to be a mismatch.”

There’s an annoying tendency for internet journalism to be hyperbolic, but here I think it’s appropriate. “Brace for impact.”
