"If you use the internet and apps, they work on automated decision making based on what’s there, and they’ve been doing that for decades, so AI is not something new. The question we need to be asking from this story is What kind of information is inside these systems? They can be used to connect us and build and improve our worlds, but at the same time, they can be very scary and can be used to drive hate."

"We need to understand that if we don’t have controls, or don’t understand what is really going on, AI just becomes some of us, it can be used for nefarious means, and doesn’t represent our ideals, our values, and the things that we want in our societies."

"Representation matters in building these AI systems, if we don’t build in what we want, then they don’t represent us."
