That evening, TIME CEO Jessica Sibley spoke with Sandra Rivera, Executive Vice President and General Manager of the Data Center and AI Group at Intel, who is also a TIME100 AI honoree, about accessible, responsible, and, most importantly, ethical AI. “There’s just so many ways that AI can be very helpful to knowledge workers that we can’t be afraid of it,” Rivera said. Acknowledging a recent McKinsey study indicating that [AI is poised to replace more jobs held by women](https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2023/07/26/ai-women-workforce-automation/)​ than those held by men, Rivera said that old jobs are replaced and new jobs are created with every new technological innovation. “From a workforce perspective, it’s the people that really embrace the technology and learn how to make that technology useful that will benefit more broadly.” “We should think about how we work together — academia, government, regulatory bodies, the commercial sector — to anticipate all the things that could happen and to ensure that we are doing everything possible as an extended industry and community to not have those unintended consequences with this amazing technology that AI is.” [](https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/company-overview/wonderful.html) [Find Out More](https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/company-overview/wonderful.html) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/branded-content/intel/sandra-rivera-evp-and-gm-of-the-data-center-and-ai-group-intel-on-ethical-ai/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/branded-content/intel/sandra-rivera-evp-and-gm-of-the-data-center-and-ai-group-intel-on-ethical-ai/"},"headline":"Sandra Rivera, Intel, discusses the possibilities of AI","datePublished":"2026-07-20T09:47:14.416Z","dateModified":"2026-07-20T09:47:07.278Z","description":"","url":"https://time.com/branded-content/intel/sandra-rivera-evp-and-gm-of-the-data-center-and-ai-group-intel-on-ethical-ai/","keywords":[],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/branded-content/intel/sandra-rivera-evp-and-gm-of-the-data-center-and-ai-group-intel-on-ethical-ai/","name":"Sandra Rivera, Intel, discusses the possibilities of AI"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"TIME Intel Executive Spotlight","description":"","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/DUhWMSlq/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2023-12-18T14:56:17.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/DUhWMSlq.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/branded-content/intel/sandra-rivera-evp-and-gm-of-the-data-center-and-ai-group-intel-on-ethical-ai/","duration":"PT5M30S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/branded-content/intel/sandra-rivera-evp-and-gm-of-the-data-center-and-ai-group-intel-on-ethical-ai/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}}] ```
