359: Getting More Women into A.I., Reducing Bias, and How to Use A.I. Responsibly with Juliette Powell

Whatever your opinion is about AI, it’s being integrated into everything we do, from what we see on social media to how facial recognition systems work to how decisions are made about you by companies.

I personally enjoy using ChatGPT and find it incredibly valuable, but I also want to make sure I’m using these AI tools responsibly and ethically.

This is why I invited Juliette Powell, co-author of the recent book "The AI Dilemma: Seven Principles for Responsible Technology,” to come on the show.

Juliette and I examine the compelling reasons why AI needs the influence of women's voices and how we can work towards a more inclusive AI landscape.

We talk about:

• The inspiration behind her co-authored book and why it's a wake-up call for responsible AI
• What companies are doing to reduce bias in AI systems
• The importance of having more women in AI, not only to diversify the field but to embed empathy and ethics into the technology that is increasingly governing our lives
• Actionable steps that can be taken to encourage women's participation in AI, from education and mentorship to policy changes and community support
• Our takes on venture capitalist Marc Andreessen’s recent, over-the-top manifesto on AI
• How we, as individuals, can use AI tools ethically and responsibly
• Juliette’s speaking experiences and tips
