We have chronicled some of the concerns expressed in polls about AI and its effects. It goes without repeating that there should be appropriate supervision and oversight of everything touched by AI. It is of major, major importance that it be so monitored. Those surveyed in those polls have every reason to feel at least uneasy about AI. Meanwhile, investors must foresee it staying around for a while.
