Prototyping AI ethics futures: Ethics in practice

Part of a week-long series of events highlighting the new possibilities of a humanities-led, broadly engaging approach to data and AI ethics

Business people holding pieces of puzzle together.
Date and time
1:00pm – 2:30pm, 25 June 2021 (BST)

Discussions about commercial AI and data ethics unavoidably run into the challenge of aligning ethical principles with the dictates of the market. Some have even questioned whether such an alignment is possible at all. This conversation will reflect on the roles and responsibilities of actors such as universities, startup accelerators, and companies large and small in shaping AI and data ethics in practice. What are pivotal moments in the development of a technology where ethically relevant choices can lead to different outcomes? How can future impacts be anticipated and assessed from an ethical perspective?
