According Rumman Chowdhury, our inability to develop new technologies with ethical care is endangering AI advancements. Chowdhury told Axios’ Ina Fried on Tuesday at Axios’ AI+ Summit in Washington, D.C., “The media and policymakers are obsessed with warnings about long-term existential risks AI might pose, but they are ignoring hard evidence of real harms happening today.”

She said that individuals are already being mistakenly imprisoned by AI systems or denied access to essential organs for transplantation. “These issues are existential for those affected by them as well,” she said, quoting Vice President Kamala Harris’ remarks made earlier this month at the AI summit in the United Kingdom. Chowdhury highlighted the IT industry’s persistent inability to include many viewpoints when developing goods for worldwide use. AI is bringing “a resurgence of bro culture,” which translates to “we’re looking at tech 2017 all over again.”

She pointed out that the conclusion of the most recent OpenAI struggle forced two women out of the boardroom and brought in former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers, who gained notoriety for downplaying women’s ability for science while serving as Harvard President.
