Speaking at the CogX Festival, he warned that AI could be manipulated to produce content that promotes harmful ideologies or misinformation, essentially becoming a tool for "bad actors." Fry emphasized the need for careful management and ethical considerations in AI development to prevent it from being used in ways that could cause significant societal harm. He also discussed the broader implications of AI, suggesting that while it has the potential to do "too much," there is still time to implement safeguards and ethical guidelines to mitigate these risks.
