- Better Markets has launched a people-centered AI agenda aimed at ensuring AI’s benefits reach Main Street workers, families, small businesses, and communities.
- The initiative is driven by Dennis Kelleher, Cofounder, President, and CEO of Better Markets, and Evan LeFlore, Better Markets’ inaugural Director of AI, Innovation, and Economic Opportunity.
- The agenda aims to counter the trend of private corporations prioritizing profit over public interest in AI’s development.
- AI holds the potential to create new opportunities, reduce biases in credit access, lower costs, and enhance productivity but could also disrupt jobs and increase inequalities without proper oversight.
- The agenda emphasizes the importance of including Main Street concerns in AI development to ensure equitable progress.
- The initiative is part of Better Markets’ mission to promote public interest and financial reform in a way that benefits all Americans.
- For more information, details on the AI agenda’s pillars can be found in their issue brief “AI, the Economy, and You: A People-Centered AI Agenda.”
