All the ills Ms. Gebru’s paper identified have come to fruition in an alarmingly short period, even when measured by the spasmodic cycles of the IT industry. In just a handful of years, the following troubling trends have emerged in the industry:
• AI has eroded the professionalism and ethics of the very practitioners who profess to be AI experts
• AI has replaced the in-mind knowledge repository with the by-chat information lookup
• AI has transmogrified itself from being just a tool of the intellectual to being the religion of the indolent
These might well be the signs that IT, as a field of practice, is no longer a human endeavour.
