Cukier is an AI enthusiast who has written about the tool for years.

In a 2018 report, he told the Pew Research Center that AI will be making more decisions in life that are “more effectively done” by machines.

“AI will be making more decisions in life, and some people will be uneasy with that,” the AI enthusiast said.

“But these are decisions that are more effectively done by machines, such as assessing insurance risk, the propensity to repay a loan or to survive a disease.

“A good example is health care: Algorithms, not doctors, will be diagnosing many diseases, even if human doctors are still ‘in the loop.’

“The benefit is that healthcare can reach down to populations that are today underserved: the poor and rural worldwide.”
