Knowing how to use AI ethically also contributes to it's development
, potential harms to and negative impacts on the environment and ecosystems should not be ignored but instead addressed,
For example, water usage in data centers
need for media and information literacy,
Highlights how big mainstream media, as well as AI is on a fundamental level
that no country and no one should be left behind, either by having fair access to AI technologies
"No country...should be left behind" "having fair access to AI technologies" illustrates that AI is a powerful tool that can make a country more powerful than those without access.

Ai putting a guy on the roof highlights how there is still far from perfect
it listens to speech, converts it into text, and can respond out loud using computer-generated voice
If Ai is being used to transcribe what it said during a meeting, how would it included the tone of how something is said? Since Ai can't really feel or detect emotion, how would it know when something is being said seriously vs. playfully?
Image quality, lighting, and camera angles can affect accuracy. These systems often need large, labeled datasets to perform well.
Besides the cost of using the Ai, having the highest quality cameras and drones adds another big cost, especially if a big natural disaster is being evaluated
Will you use a “black box” model, or do you need full interpretability and control?
Black box meaning you can see the input and output, but not process in between. I feel that seeing the process is very necessary to avoid misinformation being produced
Missing or imbalanced data can mislead AI models and lead to harmful decisions
Seems risky
It must begin with a clearly defined policy challenge.
Ai should only be used if it is necessary
.
Why'd they write it twice?
transparently and ethically,
I've seen many commercials that have contents that are very obviously generated by Ai, however, there is nothing in the commercial stating that Ai was used. I wonder if there is a law in place stating that you must tell the viewer that it is Ai.

Artificial Generative Intelligence: Ai that surpasses human cognitive abilities across a wide variety of tasks and domains
Even in two years, if incorporated thoughtfully, AI will help city leaders more quickly and comprehensively meet residents’ expectations in ways that build trust. And in so doing, government will become more conversational, personalized, and proactive.
This shows that Ai is emerging strongly and quickly. Ai implementation in this way can give people more power to address concern at any givne time.
AI oversight cannot become surveillance.
AI implementation in this area can raise privacy concerns.
How would implementing Ai for audits work?
AI creates new forms of accountability because decisions become more transparent, traceable, and reviewable.
While Ai is automating the repetitive work, if it fails or makes a mistake that worker is still held accoutable.
The programs convert speech into text in the first language, then translatethe written text into a second language. Like in the slumber party game of“telephone,” each step in the process increases the potential for error
This ties in with my earlier question about accuracy
Certainly, AI can facilitate basic translation work forcommon languages in government offices. But effective public administration stillrequires the labor of multilingual people
As for translation, Ai can be a big helper, but not a solution
The Miami court system’s chatbot “SANDI” offers a moredynamic conversational example. SANDI uses AI to help residents find andcomplete forms for “non-complex family court matters” on its websites—and caninteract with users in both English and Spanish.
What personal information does this bot have access to when helping someone complete a form? Earlier in the article, reference to chatbots being used for court matters and how privacy becomes a concern led me to think about the ethics of this particular chatbot.
ithout AI, this is achieved through hiring multilingual public administrators orthrough paying human translators.
Benefit: Less cost
. These conversations may include sensitiveinformation, financial data, and follow-up visits to an applicant’s home.
This raises a big ethical concern if the chatbot isn't super secure.
Here, unproven AItechnologies are presented as a replacement for human labor.
Disgusting
An October 2023 survey from the Bloomberg and Johns Hopkins initiative AI CityConnect found that according to mayors, only 2 percent of cities were using AI. ASeptember 2024 Ernst and Young survey of federal, state, and local governmentworkers at the senior level, however, found that more than 50 percent of workerswere regularly using AI applications.
This statistic shows how the presence of Ai use is emerging
Basic chatbots provide consistent andaccurate information because their responses are prewritten by content experts,but they can be frustratingly limited.
Chatbots make communication easier for the reciever, but more difficult for the sender.
More than 75 percent of workers in a recentsurvey reported that, amid expectations of increased productivity from theirbosses, AI had made aspects of their job more difficult and “added to theirworkload in at least one way.”
Ai is adding to problems
. Some good government jobs —which have been a sourceof middle-class stability in communities across the country for decades—arealready facing elimination.
Ai is taking away jobs
