Responsible AI in Action
Valeria Sadovykh,PWC
Reid Blackman, Virtue Consultants
Jun Wu, Forbes Reporter
As the discussion on AI ethics and adoption of Responsible AI grows, there is confusion of what does Responsible AI actually mean for an enterprise. Is it regulation? Is it having a moral stance? Is it policy? Is it to prevent bad actors? As we delegate more and more decision making to machines, we need to not only bring policy, but also have pragmatic ways to adopt these practices within the entrprise. Join industry leaders Dr. Valeria Sadovykh, Dr. Reid Blackman, and Jun Wu on a discussion on what it means to adopt Responsible AI in the enterprise.
