人工智能（AI）研究是一个相对较新的领域，但正在迅速扩大。2015年，美国研究人员在自然指数跟踪的期刊上发表了850篇关于人工智能和机器人技术的文章;到2021年，这一数字上升到3,651篇。这种快速增长在其他地方也有反映，尽管这可能令人兴奋，但也有充分的理由警惕这项研究如何进行和应用的偏见和不一致性。其中一个潜在的差异是人工智能与城市和农村社区的关系。位于新南威尔士州巴瑟斯特的查尔斯特大学人工智能和网络未来研究所执行主任Ganna Pogrebna表示，生活在偏远地区的人可能比城市居民更容易受到该技术的危险，但却被研究所忽视。
The study of artificial intelligence (AI) is a relatively new field but one that is rapidly expanding. In 2015, researchers in the United States published 850 articles on artificial intelligence and robotics in journals tracked by the Nature Index; that figure had risen to 3,651 by 2021. Such rapid growth has been mirrored elsewhere, and although it might be cause for excitement, it is also good reason to be wary of biases and inconsistencies in how this research is conducted and applied.One of these potential discrepancies is the way in which AI relates to urban and rural communities. According to Ganna Pogrebna, executive director of the Artificial Intelligence and Cyber Futures Institute at Charles Sturt University in Bathurst, New South Wales, those living in remote areas are potentially more exposed to the technology’s dangers than their urban counterparts, but are being neglected by research.
