AI Safety, Ethics & Governance

What if AI safety fails not because of technical flaws, but because we ignore who bears the cost? A new study in Nature reveals that in medieval Europe, lead exposure was not shared equally — the poor paid the price. This biological record in tooth enamel is a stark reminder: when risk is invisible to the powerful, it becomes invisible to oversight. Today’s AI systems, trained on data shaped by centuries of inequality, face the same danger. Without equity-centered governance, we risk replicating past injustices at scale. This isn’t just about fairness — it’s about survival.
