Description

The rapid progress of technology and artificial intelligence (AI) has brought about both great opportunities and significant challenges. A major concern is the ethical use of AI, especially regarding issues like privacy, bias, and transparency in decision-making. As AI systems increasingly impact sectors such as healthcare, finance, and criminal justice, there is a growing worry that algorithmic bias could reinforce existing inequalities and produce unfair outcomes. Ensuring that AI systems are transparent, accountable, and free from inherent prejudice is a crucial challenge for researchers and policymakers alike.
A related and equally urgent issue involves the effects of AI and automation on the workforce. As machines and algorithms take on tasks traditionally performed by humans, there is a real risk of job loss and widening social inequality. While technology can improve productivity and create new types of jobs, it also requires large-scale reskilling and adaptation within the labor force. Additionally, the digital divide remains a persistent challenge: unequal access to technology and digital literacy can worsen social and economic gaps between different regions and communities.
