About
As we leverage artificial intelligence to assist in ever more facets of our day-to-day lives, justifiable concerns over their fairness, power, and their effects on privacy, speech, and autonomy grow. In the private sector, businesses now grapple with the dual concerns of developing and deploying ethical AI, while in the public sphere, governments are crafting policy to set the ground rules for safe and fair AI use.

Given this backdrop, what does it mean to build responsible, ethical AI? What policies can we expect from governments that will shape AI development and use in the future? Join this webinar with Intel’s Melvin Greer, IBM’s Noelle Silver and Daniela Braga from Defined.ai as we discuss how we can all do our part to work together, ensuring that our AI future is a just one.

  • How interpretable AI aids transparency and reduces business liability
