Thank you to all of the witnesses.
My first question is for Dr. Cukier.
Following up on your last point about the digital divide and bias, we all know that AI basically functions on large data, whether that's language or biological data—and everything else.
You mentioned the digital divide. Certain parts of the world have, unfortunately, less input into and therefore less interaction with the AI model. Eventually, we're going to see a skewed model in which certain ethnic groups or certain geographical representations are lacking in that environment. If we depend on AI to make decisions legally or medically and so forth, that's going create a further digital divide and create a more unjust environment globally. Can you speak to that a bit more, please?
