Episode description

AI is becoming more and more prevalent. It’s already making key decisions in our lives. However someone still needs to create that AI. Kaya explains the dangers of biased AI solutions, and we discuss the importance of increasing diversity in tech and beyond.

Some of the topics we cover this episode, in order 👇

☑️ The problem with bias in ai

☑️ Increasing awareness and diversity in tech

☑️ The importance of a safe and welcoming environment

☑️ The impact of your communication

Thoughts that stuck with me:

AI is changing the lives of people, but people still need to create the ai responsibly
Diversity within any sector will not happen overnight, but awareness and lots of small contributions can create big change.
