The Current State Of AI Ethics
Data Science Central, Monday, September 16th, 2024
I had the pleasure of sitting down with Laura Miller. Laura is the founder of NextGen Ethics, an AI consultancy dedicated to embedding ethics into the lifecycle of AI development. She is not only a philosopher and award-winning ethicist, but also a passionate advocate for creating technology that aligns with the greater good of society.
The conversation touched on a wide range of topics, from the challenges of AI in moderating social media content to the broader implications of AI on global sustainability goals. This episode was packed with thought-provoking insights, and I'm excited to share a recap of the key points we discussed.
The next frontier in content moderation
Laura's company, NextGen Ethics, has been working on a personalized solution for moderating harmful content on social media platforms. One of the core issues she addressed is the responsibility tech companies have (or in some cases, fail to take) when it comes to curating the vast amount of content on their platforms.
