I must confess to getting a little sick of seeing the endless stream of articles about this (along with the season finale of Succession and the debt ceiling), but what do you folks think? Is this something we should all be worrying about, or is it overblown?

    AI being bias is not a new problem. All of our tools are bias and we have humans to moderate them to adjust. This goes all the way back to basic algorithms and even physics - e.g. darker skin people were harder to capture on primitive film but we did it.

    I think addressing bias is an easy problem to solve as we’ll have a surplus of work force and AI moderator/training might as well be a big, new career path.

    Also regarding finance and politics - there’s really nowhere to go but up imo. As someone who worked in fintech and real estate it’s all complete an utter joke that can’t get any worse.
