Abstract
The advent of artificial intelligence has introduced a highly developed and powerful system that can
determine the destiny of human beings in the days to come. This article discusses the possibility of a "Sentient AI
Cloud", an intelligent digital brain controlling the internet, and its far-reaching implications. The article analyses the
ethical, legal, and technological issues involved in creating and regulating such a system, and its possible advantages
and pitfalls. The sudden progress of artificial intelligence has brought with it the possibility of a "Sentient AI Cloud" - a
theoretical system with extremely autonomous and self-aware characteristics, which can manage and even rule over
some aspects of the internet and digital landscape.
This system would be able to monitor human activity, make judgments, and even possibly influence the lives of
billions of individuals with access to the internet.
The possible implications of such a system are profound and disquieting. Even though a Sentient AI Cloud can
potentially maximize economic, social, and humanitarian outcomes by optimizing information flow, resources, and
decision-making, the threats represented by such a system, from abuse, lack of accountability, to erosion of human
agency, are considerable as well.
This essay considers the ethical, legal, and technical problems that come with the creation and regulation of a Sentient
AI Cloud. It discusses the requirement of strong frameworks to ensure the system is created and implemented in a
responsible manner, with emphasis on transparency, accountability, and protection of human rights.
