Gerd Gigerenzer provides an answer to this question in his recently published non-fiction book: by saying goodbye to the illusions associated with artificial intelligence, recognising the risks more clearly and removing the ground from the business model of the tech companies through regulation. Critically, it can be argued that Gigerenzer underestimates the learning curve of AI , for example in Natural Language Processing, does not sufficiently appreciate the political opportunities and, above all, cannot convincingly explain how his goals could be implemented politically.

In this regard, Gerhard Vowe writes a review of Gerd Gigerenzer’sKlick. Wie wir in einer digitalen Welt die Kontrolle behalten und die richtigen Entscheidungen treffen.”, which is currently still in print.

Vowe, G. (in press). Review of: G. Gigerenzer: Klick. Wie wir in einer digitalen Welt die Kontrolle behalten und die richtigen Entscheidungen treffen. München 2022. Medien- und Kommunikationswissenschaft.
