Parthasarathy on AI running the government

March 13, 2025 Al Jazeera

Shobita Parthasarathy, Ford School professor, says "These workers have real expertise and a nuanced understanding of the issues, which AI does not. AI does not, in fact, ‘understand’ anything." So, she says,  “It’s a very bad idea" to use AI to run the US government. "It is likely to have limited utility, and even reinforce historical biases" Parthasarathy said.
