Ever wondered if AI is more friend or foe?
At the Paris AI Summit 2025, AI was the hot topic on everyone’s lips…and rightly so.
Let me tell you, it was a scene. Picture tech giants and world leaders all in one room, chewing over just how big a deal artificial intelligence really is. Pretty massive, right? Well, that’s where Vice President JD Vance stepped in with some hard-hitting truths.
Real questions call for real answers.
Is AI safe to use?
Everyone’s asking if AI is safe, and honestly, that’s a fair question.
JD Vance didn’t dance around it. He painted a clear picture that safety is a big deal. “AI can revolutionise lives,” he said, and he’s not wrong. But he put safety front and centre:
- Safety…No tech’s worth a dime if it’s unsafe
- Privacy…your data is your data, full stop
- Usability…tech so simple even your grandma gets it
Think about it…what’s the use of something if it’s not safe for your family? Exactly.
