It is well known that the mobile is addictive. It stimulates the dopamine center in the brain, and has a design reminiscent of one-armed bandits in a casino hall. There is, however, another aspect of addiction that is underestimated and that makes it an almost impossible task for the individual to regulate their own use.

“We need a perspective message with multiple perspectives.” This was the main message of Aksel Braanen Sterri, Head of Science, when he spoke about artificial intelligence (AI) at Norsk rikskringkasting (NRK) in connection with the launch of the perspective message. Previous perspective reports have overlooked the financial crisis, the pandemic, wars and most recently artificial intelligence, i.e. the really big events.
