What is socially responsible AI? Broad Science podcast ep available

4/9/2020

 
Photos of interviewees
I was interviewed by the amazing folks at Broad Science for their podcast several months ago. Broad Science is "an initiative dedicated to making science inclusive, engaging, and intersectional," and focuses on "telling science stories from the voices and perspectives that often get overlooked and go untold." I love what they are all about, and recommend checking out their full list of podcast eps on soundcloud.

This episode entitled "What is socially responsible AI?" (aired April 3rd, 2020) features interviews with myself, Dr. Timnit Gebru, Surya Matu, and Dr. Kirk Bansak. The interviewers cover a ton of ground in this episode, including racial profiling, machine bias, interface design, and issues of diversity and inclusion in STEM. We discussed issues of gender and labor in virtual assistant design including the impacts of these technologies in society and broader questions about AI ethics. All of these interviews are fabulous; I start around 42:00, but definitely take the time to listen to the whole thing! 

Thank you to Broad Science for reaching out to me, and wonderful job on this episode!
