AI Didn't Discriminate. It Just Learned From People Who Did.

Your AI tool isn't neutral. It never was because it was trained on decades of human decisions, hiring patterns, lending records, medical research made within systems that weren't fair to begin with. Now those decisions are being automated at scale. A job application is rejected before a human sees it. A loan is declined due to a postcode. A patient is deprioritised by data that wasn't built around them.This episode breaks down how AI inherits bias, why most businesses don't know it's happening, and what to do about it.We cover:— Why bias is a data problem, not a tech problem— The Amazon tool that penalised women's CVs without anyone programming it to— What the EU AI Act requires from your business right now— 5 practical steps to build AI systems you can trust— Why critical AI literacy is paramount for all employeesThis one is for the business leader, the professional, the student, and anyone whose life has already been shaped by a decision an algorithm made.New episode every Tuesday.Working with AI in your business and want to get the governance right?
