A University of Warwick IATL Podcast This podcast series was developed by Dr Tom Ritchie and Dr Jennie Mills, the module leads of the ⁠IATL module ⁠"The AI Revolution: Ethics, Technology, and Society"⁠⁠ at the University of Warwick. The AI Revolution module explores the history, current state, and potential futures of artificial intelligence, examining its profound impact on society, individuals, and the very definition of 'humanness.'   This podcast was initially designed to provide a deeper dive into the key themes explored each week in class. We want to share the discussions we have had to help offer a broader, interdisciplinary perspective on the ethical and societal implications of artificial intelligence to a wider audience. Join each fortnight for new critical conversations on AI Ethics with local, national, and international experts. We will discuss: - Ethical Dimensions of AI: Fairness, bias, transparency, and accountability. - Societal Implications: How AI is transforming industries, economies, and our understanding of humanity. - The Future of AI: Potential benefits, risks, and shaping a future where AI serves humanity.
