There are several ways that society can help slow down the implementation and application of AI.

There needs to be more public discourse and awareness of the potential consequences and implications of AI technology. This can be achieved through public education campaigns, public debates, and media coverage.

Governments can regulate the development and deployment of AI technology, by setting ethical standards and creating regulatory frameworks that ensure AI is used for the benefit of society.

Companies can be encouraged to develop AI in a responsible manner, by prioritizing transparency, accountability, and privacy.

And, there needs to be a shift in societal values, with more emphasis on human-centered design and an awareness of the potential unintended consequences of AI.
