In this episode of The Mind Takeaway podcast, we explore the fascinating and complex world of AI ethics with Camila, an AI ethics research expert at SAP. We explore the development of AI ethics over the past decade and its crucial role in ensuring that AI technologies are designed and used responsibly and ethically. Camila sheds light on the significant gaps in AI development, the ethical concerns surrounding AI, and the importance of safeguarding human rights and societal values amidst rapid technological advancements.

We discuss the challenges posed by biased and incomplete data, the Western-centric nature of current AI technologies, and the implications of AI-generated data. Camilla emphasises the need for a balanced approach to AI development, integrating ethical principles into the engineering cycle and fostering collaboration among diverse stakeholders, including policymakers, legal experts, and designers.

We also touch on the EU AI Act, its impact on consumer and business AI technologies, and the importance of transparency, explainability, and quality testing in AI systems. The conversation highlights the necessity of slowing down and reflecting on the broader implications of AI, including environmental considerations and the right to disconnect.
