Kevin Warbach, head of Wharton's law and business ethics department, recently launched a podcast in which he interviews experts and executives who are building responsible artificial intelligence systems.
Werbach started a podcast called “The Road to Accountable AI” with the goal of reaching a broader audience beyond Penn’s campus and engaging with experts in the AI industry. He expects the podcast's audience to be made up of both people who are directly involved in the development and deployment of AI, as well as people who are less involved but are interested in AI.
In an interview with the Daily Pennsylvanian, Warbach talked about a wide range of organizations grappling with AI policy, and the name of the podcast is “Organizations of all types are making strides toward ethical, safe, and responsible AI systems.'' “It's designed to highlight the progress we're making.” And they are developing different techniques and insights to get there. ”
Mr. Warbach said his experience as a legal scholar at Wharton provided him with a strong foundation in understanding the relationship between law and business.
“I think what’s really important here is not just the formal structure of the legal requirements, but what impact does that have in practice as companies move forward with the development and implementation of AI? ” he said.
Eric Bradlow, associate dean of analytics and head of marketing at Wharton, said he was interested in hearing Warbach's thoughts on how AI accountability and responsibility can enhance corporate behavior. Stated.
Bradlaugh emphasized the impact of AI and the importance of AI transparency and accountability.
“AI is really going to change the face of business. It's going to change the face of research. It's going to change the face of education,” he said.
Wharton senior Julia Shelansky, who works as a research assistant and podcast producer, sought to better understand the ethical implications of AI and hear from industry leaders responsible for bringing AI into educational institutions. He said he accepted the role.
Shelansky said participating in the podcast reaffirmed her desire to work in the AI field, and her biggest takeaway is that accountability will be a differentiator for organizations using AI. I said that.
“that [the podcast] It really taught me that rather than just implementing a model, it's really important to understand the whys and drivers so that you can evaluate the results and mitigate the risks. ” she said.
Schelansky said he found Verbach always ends his podcasts with a question about what the most important trends will be in the future, and how insightful it is to think about the future from those conversations. I emphasized that Iruka.
Upcoming episodes of the podcast will feature individuals leading responsible AI efforts at major companies such as Amazon Web Services, Salesforce, Telefonica, and Walmart. It will also feature conversations with leading corporate advisors on AI ethics and responsibility, including Olivia Gambelin and her girlfriend Navrina Singh, who runs Credo AI.
Werbach said he became active in implementing podcasts because he believes a new wave of regulations will create a huge demand for an AI-experienced workforce.
“It's going to be a huge demand, and again, very few people have years of experience in this field,” Werbach said.
