#25 - The Most Important Conversation About AI

In this pivotal episode, Kieren and Riku are joined by Dr Huw Day, researcher and co-organiser of Data Ethics Club at the University of Bristol — an open-to-all journal club on data and AI ethics. Together, they argue that ensuring AI systems align with ethical principles is now a crucial societal priority. You’ll get a clear tour of core pillars such as fairness, transparency and accountability, plus the gritty realities of bias, deepfakes and the human cost of “alignment work” performed by data labellers. We compare government approaches to AI policy, then share practical ways consumers and society can steer development in a responsible direction.Birds for Scale, Smarties is licensed under CC BY-SA.Local Forecast – Elevator by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under CC BY.
