Vilas Dhar, the President of the Patrick J. McGovern Foundation, advocates for the prioritization of human well-being in the advancement of artificial intelligence (AI). In a recent interview, he emphasized the necessity for AI to serve the public good rather than solely focusing on profit. Dhar argues that the development of ethical, people-centered AI is crucial for fostering a more equitable society.
He highlighted the importance of investing in global, non-commercial data assets, which can play a significant role in ensuring that technology not only supports democracy but also enhances the quality of life for individuals around the world. By prioritizing ethical considerations in AI development, Dhar believes that society can harness the potential of technology to address pressing challenges, ultimately leading to a more just and inclusive future.
His insights underscore the need for a collaborative approach to AI, where humility and a commitment to the greater good guide innovation and implementation.
