#265 What You Need to Know About the EU AI Act with Dan Nechita, EU Director at Transatlantic Policy Network 2024-11-28 · 10:00 Adel – host @ DataFramed , Dan Nechita – EU Director @ Transatlantic Policy Network We’re improving DataFramed, and we need your help! We want to hear what you have to say about the show, and how we can make it more enjoyable for you—find out more here. With the EU AI Act coming into effect, the AI industry faces a pivotal moment. This regulation is a landmark step for AI governance and challenges data and AI teams to rethink their approach to AI development and deployment. How will this legislation influence the way AI systems are built and used? What are the key compliance requirements that organizations need to be aware of? And how can companies balance regulatory obligations with the drive for innovation and growth? Dan Nechita led the technical negotiations for the EU Artificial Intelligence Act on behalf of the European Parliament. For the 2019-2024 mandate, besides artificial intelligence, he focused on digital regulation, security and defense, and the transatlantic partnership as Head of Cabinet for Dragos Tudorache, MEP. Previously, he was a State Counselor for the Romanian Prime Minister with a mandate on e-governance, digitalization, and cybersecurity. He worked at the World Security Institute (the Global Zero nuclear disarmament initiative); at the Brookings Institution Center of Executive Education; as a graduate teaching assistant at the George Washington University; at the ABC News Political Unit; and as a research assistant at the Arnold A. Saltzman Institute of War and Peace at Columbia. He is an expert project evaluator for the European Commission and a member of expert AI working groups with the World Economic Forum and the United Nations. Dan is a graduate of the George Washington University (M.A.) and Columbia University in the City of New York (B.A.). In the episode, Adel and Dan explore the EU AI Act's significance, risk classification frameworks, organizational compliance strategies, the intersection with existing regulations, AI literacy requirements, and the future of AI legislation, and much more.

#256 From Deep Learning to SuperIntelligence with Terry Sejnowski, Head of Computational Neurobiology at Salk Institute 2024-10-28 · 10:00 Terry Sejnowski – Head of Computational Neurobiology @ Salk Institute , Richie – host @ DataCamp With the recent rapid advancements in AI comes the challenge of navigating an ever-changing field of play, while ensuring the tech we use serves real-world needs. As AI becomes more ingrained in business and everyday life, how do we balance cutting-edge development with practicality and ethical responsibility? What steps are necessary to ensure AI’s growth benefits society, aligns with human values, and avoids potential risks? What similarities can we draw between the way we think, and the way AI thinks for us? Terry Sejnowski is one of the most influential figures in computational neuroscience. At the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, he runs the Computational Neurobiology Laboratory, and hold the Francis Crick Chair. At the University of California, San Diego, he is a Distinguished Professor and runs a neurobiology lab. Terry is also the President of the Neural Information Processing (NIPS) Foundation, and an organizer of the NeurIPS AI conference. Alongside Geoff Hinton, Terry co-invented the Boltzmann machine technique for machine learning. He is the author of over 500 journal articles on neuroscience and AI, and the book "ChatGPT and the Future of AI". In the episode, Richie and Terry explore the current state of AI, historical developments in AI, the NeurIPS conference, collaboration between AI and neuroscience, AI’s shift from academia to industry, large vs small LLMs, creativity in AI, AI ethics, autonomous AI, AI agents, superintelligence, and much more.

#237 Guardrails for the Future of AI with Viktor Mayer-Schönberger, Professor of Internet Governance and Regulation at the University of Oxford 2024-08-22 · 10:00 Viktor Mayer-Schönberger – Professor of Internet Governance and Regulation @ Oxford Internet Institute, University of Oxford , Richie – host @ DataCamp Guardrails are not something we actively use in our day-to-day lives, they’re in place to keep us safe when we lack the control needed to keep us on course, and for that, they are essential. Navigating the complexities of decision-making in AI and data can be challenging, especially on a global scale when many are searching for any sort of competitive advantage. Every choice you make can have significant impacts, and having the right frameworks, ethics and guardrails in place are crucial. But how do you create systems that guide decisions without stifling creativity or flexibility? What practices can you employ to ensure your team consistently make better choices and flourish in the age of AI? Viktor Mayer-Schönberger is a distinguished Professor of Internet Governance and Regulation at the Oxford Internet Institute, University of Oxford. With a career spanning over decades, his research focuses on the role of information in a networked economy. He previously served on the faculty of Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government for ten years and has authored several influential books, including the award-winning “Delete: The Virtue of Forgetting in the Digital Age” and the international bestseller “Big Data.” Viktor founded Ikarus Software in 1986, where he developed Virus Utilities, Austria’s best-selling software product. He has been recognized as a Top-5 Software Entrepreneur in Austria and has served as a personal adviser to the Austrian Finance Minister on innovation policy. His work has garnered global attention, featuring in major outlets like the New York Times, BBC, and The Economist. Viktor is also a frequent public speaker and an advisor to governments, corporations, and NGOs on issues related to the information economy. In the episode, Richie and Viktor explore the definition of guardrails, characteristics of good guardrails, guardrails in business contexts, life-or-death decision-making, principles of effective guardrails, decision-making and cognitive bias, uncertainty in decision-making, designing guardrails, AI and the implementation of guardrails, and much more.
