Brian Hsu: Definition & Assumption Behind AI Ethics, Shift in AI Talents & Career Choice

What is even fairness in AI? Is there such a thing as too much diversity in AI output? Should AI reflect the world as it is, or the world we wish it to be? In this episode of Floating Questions, Brian Hsu, a Senior Responsible AI Engineer at LinkedIn, takes us into the heart of responsible AI, sharing his journey from grad school stardom to the trenches of building fair and impactful machine learning systems with interesting tales. We also delve into why Brian chose to forgo a PhD at top-tier institutions like Stanford, and his reflections on the type of talents of AI needed in practice. This conversation is part technical, part philosophical, and wholly human. Tune in and decide for yourself: how can we really program ethics into the machines of tomorrow?
