I think there is. Letting the actual professionals guide, instead of the money people is a big step.
Something like McDonnell, and later Boeing, basing all decisions on economic short gains, instead of engineering criteria.
Bean counters shouldn't make decisions.
The problem is, who do you define as professionals? I'm a professional software engineer. I argue that there is no responsible way to use AI at the moment- it uses too many resources for a far too worthless result. Everything useful that an AI can do is currently better (and cheaper) to do another way, save perhaps live transcription.
Do you define Sam Altman as a professional? Because his guidance wants the entire world to give up 10% of the worldwide GDP to his company (yes, seriously!) He's clearly touched in the head, or on drugs. Should we follow his advice?
