Last month Indian activist Anna Hazare s hunger strike sparked protests across India and garnered attention from international media before forcing the Indian Parliament to take up an anti-corruption bill. HT Image This week when Pakistani activist Raja Jahangir Akhtar completed his nine-day hunger strike against corruption here, only a few hundred people showed up and Akhtar lamented the lack of media coverage. And all he got for his effort were some vague promises from local parliamentarians. Resting on his hospital bed two days after breaking his fast with a glass of mango juice, Akhtar expressed disappointment over the lukewarm response, and he put the blame squarely on his compatriots. In India people are politically more conscious, and they have a history of making their demands accepted through agitation, he said. People here feel that whatever they do the ruling elite won t accede to their demands. Akhtar insists he is no Hazare copycat.

Current experience with artificial intelligence 鈥?the technology enabled by machine-learning 鈥?suggests we are getting it the other way round this time. Theres too much talk about the putative existential risk to humanity posed by AI, and too little about our experience of it so far a stanley cup nd corporate plans for exploiting the technology.Although AI has been hiding in plain sight for a decade, it took most people by surprise.
