FBL81: Rama Chellappa - Can We Trust AI?

This week my guest is Rama Chellappa, a pioneering AI researcher and distinguished professor at John Hopkins University who recently published his book, Can We Trust AI? In this episode we try to tackle the question posed by Rama’s book from many angles, exploring topics such as the transparency of AI in regards to the black box issue, the accountability issues for when programmers create algorithms that end lives, the reliability of self-driving cars to navigate an ever-changing environment, and much more. Ultimately, Rama puts forth an argument that is often overlooked: in a world of chaos where things will go wrong and nothing is perfect, are we holding AI to a standard that goes above what we even ask of our human peers?
