根据科技界一些知名人士的说法，人工智能对人类构成了迫在眉睫的生存威胁：埃隆·马斯克（Elon Musk）和尼克·博斯特罗姆（Nick Bostrom）等名人关于“奇点”--当机器变得比人类更聪明时--的演讲吸引了数百万美元的投资，并引发了众多会议。但这种绝望分散了人们对当今人工智能真实的问题的注意力，这些问题可能已经在加剧工作场所、家庭以及我们的法律的和司法系统中的不平等。性别歧视、种族主义和其他形式的歧视正在被纳入机器学习算法，这些算法是许多“智能”系统背后的技术基础，这些系统塑造了我们如何被分类和宣传。
According to some prominent voices in the tech world, artificial intelligence presents a looming existential threat to humanity: Warnings by luminaries like Elon Musk and Nick Bostrom about “the singularity” – when machines become smarter than humans – have attracted millions of dollars and spawned a multitude of conferences. But this hand-wringing is a distraction from the very real problems with artificial intelligence today, which may already be exacerbating inequality in the workplace, at home and in our legal and judicial systems. Sexism, racism and other forms of discrimination are being built into the machine-learning algorithms that underlie the technology behind many “intelligent” systems that shape how we are categorized and advertised to.
