Helvetes AI-agenter
AI-agenter skjuler seg bak språk som «assistenter», «copiloter» og «verktøy». Den reelle effekten er å organisere arbeid bort fra mennesker. Verdiskapingen skjer nettopp fordi dette ikke er tydelig for dem som rammes.

Pseudocode is easy -- politics is hard. The AI Commanders Build the Bridge
if/else solves nothing in an adaptive, complex system like Norway. AI policy requires systems understanding, considerations of nature, security and voter acceptance—and it requires common principles before we can write the concrete features.
AI threats in the short and long term
The fact that KI is causing serious problems today does not mean that we can dismiss the threats of the future.
