Deep dives

Uneven Distribution of AI Systems

One of the main issues with artificial intelligence (AI) is the uneven distribution of power in shaping and creating AI systems. While these systems have the potential to influence and shape the future for everyone, they are being developed by a small minority of the population. This creates a problem where the benefits and harms of AI systems are not evenly distributed.
