Dr. Ahmad, Fr. Benanti, Rt Rev Dr. Croft, Rev Dr. Harris, Dr. Kalman, Fr. Larrey, R. Mitelman, Dr. Qadir, & Rinpoche: The Risks & Rewards of AI

In our last episode, we learned about the Rome Call for AI Ethics, which asked representatives from world business, educational institutions, governments, and religions to support ethical principles around artificial intelligence, including transparency, fairness, inclusivity, impartiality, reliability, and security and privacy. We are back with the same guests again today: scientists and technology experts, aligned with Christian, Jewish, Muslim, and Buddhist faith traditions. They’ll tell us more about what they have learned about the ethics of artificial intelligence in the years since they first responded to that global call from the Vatican. They’ll also share what not only what concerns them about AI, but what gives them a sense of optimism and hope. And we’ll hear more about what they bring to the international dialogue around emerging technology from their perspective as persons of faith.
