À PROPOS DE CET ÉPISODE
Today on the Re-Patterning Podcast, we're joined by Damien Patrick Williams, an expert in ethics in AI and a professor in philosophy and data science at the University of North Carolina. Damien's research explores how technology and artificial intelligence are impacted by the values, knowledge systems, philosophical explorations, social structures, and even the religious beliefs of human beings.
Our discussion exposes how technology isn’t neutral but a reflection of human values, social structures, and prejudices. He reveals chilling examples from pulse oximeters to language models, showing how biases can literally shape outcomes in health, justice, and social perception. Damien breaks down the myths of technological neutrality, explaining how societal biases get baked into algorithms through data sets and design choices. We explore the dangerous consequences of trusting math and automation biases, and how these distort our understanding of truth, reality, and human worth.
If you care about the spiritual, social, and political implications of AI, and want to learn how to navigate its influence consciously, this episode is your call to action!
