Bush’s Gavin Rossdale Says We’re All Doomed By AI

Forget nuclear weapons, global warming and Texas-sized asteroids. Bush frontman Gavin Rossdale says the biggest threat to humankind is artificial intelligence.

“It’s the biggest threat ever, and it’s potentially the biggest tool imaginable,” Rossdale says of AI. “I mean, it’s only a matter of time before we’re all out of a job and AI takes over everything. Where does it end? I don’t know how we’d compete once it gets even more advanced. In two years, five years, 10 years. Oh my God. Enjoy your time.”

That’s not to say Rossdale thinks AI is good enough to replace humans. “It’s just terrifying, because I tried it,” he says. “I did, like, ‘Write a love story that involves a horse and a skiing trip and a deli in New York City written the style of David Bowie, Tom Waits and Jack Kerouac.’ And the limitations presently are that it’s wild how it has no subtext. Zero subtext. And AI is not anything sentient that knows nuance; there’s no nuance.”
