Artificial Intelligence is Here | 5: What's all this talk about bias, fairness, and transparency?

In the last few years, conversations around the risks from AI have exploded. We’re hearing about racist, sexist, and in-scrutable algorithms taking over decisions in domains that run the gamut from hiring to criminal justice. We’re learning about how AI-driven content on social media platforms is fostering conspiracy theories and spreading hate and distrust. We’re worrying about how much corporations—and governments—are tracking our movements in public and online and whether our faces belong to us anymore. In this session, we give an overview of the sets of issues that are currently capturing attention in public debates and identify the issues we see on the horizon, including how to ensure that entities, including governments, that rely on AI to make decisions can be transparent and accountable and how to foster the technologies we’ll need to help regulate AI. Speaker: Gillian K. Hadfield, Schwartz Reisman Chair in Technology and Society; professor of law and marketing, University of Toronto; Canada CIFAR AI Chair, Vector Institute. About this series: Artificial intelligence is constantly evolving, playing an increasingly larger role in our lives, and transforming every sector from medicine to finance to law and far beyond. We often read about both the great promise of AI and its negative consequences. But what really is AI? How can AI advance human welfare by improving health, education, sustainability, equality and inclusion, access to justice, and more? What do we need to do to ensure that AI is built for public benefit, and how can we mitigate the harm AI can cause? To respond to these questions, the Schwartz Reisman Institute for Technology and Society partnered with Canada School of Public Service to present “Artificial Intelligence is Here,” an eight-part series designed to explain what AI is, where it’s headed, and what workers in the public sector need to know about it.
