A typical strategy of the Above AI approach is related to positioning: we should avoid being subjected to an oracular and monological AI (such as that of ChatGPT and generative conversational interfaces in general), but we should also be wary of being “flanked” by an AI model that acts as an equal assistant, sooner or later destined to condition us (in this case the example is Copilot). Instead, we need to place ourselves “above” AI in order to maintain a general view of the training process and its technological components, aimed at specific goals.
