The organised irresponsibility of artificial intelligence The Andrew J Webster Annual Lecture on Science, Technology and Society
Talk
Event details
As the promises of artificial intelligence attract growing social, political and financial attention, risks and responsibilities are being imagined in ways that serve the interests of a techno scientific elite.
In the UK and elsewhere, organisations are starting to institutionalise a mode of governance that presumes to know and take care of public concerns. And new research communities are forming around questions of AI ’safety’ and ‘alignment’.
In this talk, I will draw on research into public and expert attitudes and reflect on my role as a proponent, analyst and actor in debates about ‘Responsible AI’.
Speaker
Professor Jack Stilgoe, University College London
