Part 2: Ethics and AI with Yoav Schlesinger

Jay Mason

In this podcast, I continue my discussion with Yoav Schlesinger in which we dig further into the ethics of AI.  Join me as we hear him walk us through how something as seemingly benign as voice assistants can propagate bias through a 'stacking' effect with life altering consequences. We'll also hear about the similarities between the introduction of AI technologies and another messy introduction of technology from our history (spoiler alert: it has 4 wheels!) And we'll also discuss how the pandemic influenced our understanding and usage of AI.
