So the right to bear would be the ability legislative to do that, correct? In a sense, yeah. Because they're not going to do it out of the spirit of their own hearts. It certainly
Speaker 2
would not come from anybody out of the goodness of their hearts doing it. But it would have to be legislated. There would have to be protections. What I work on is creating the third-party community of people who assess algorithms. Right now, there's a lot of push for government regulation. But, you know, cynical me thinks that moving from one incredibly powerful centralized entity to another incredibly powerful centralized entity maybe isn't the way to go. that maybe there's an ecosystem and there could and should be third-party people who help you do these things. So, you know, you think about all of these like small shops that can do things like create plugins for things, right? So what if there were just people out there who created little tools, bots, little ways to help people fine-tune things for themselves rather than, again, the power entirely being in a company's hands or entirely being in the government's hands. We don't have anything like that. A starting point would be some sort of protections for people who are ethical hackers, essentially. Okay. So we're on our own, in other words, is what you're saying.

Support for On With Kara Swisher comes from Elf Beauty. One of the most tried and true self-care rituals out there is getting all done up and listening to great music while you do.

So Mark Zuckerberg envisions a future of more AI agents than people, but he's not the only one. Everyone in AI is talking about autonomous agents that can pretty much do anything a person can do online and be very helpful. And it's a very lovely idea, like Jarvis in Iron Man. You've seen it do this. It's an assistant that doesn't talk back. They figure everything out for you and make it easier. And a lot of things are. But Jillian, explain how this could lead to economic chaos and talk us through your solutions because it does change things for people. And at the same time, using the internet in a lot of ways is artisanal. You kind of do it yourself. It's kind of you have to figure out everything yourself.
