The Intersection of AI and Ethics: A Conversation with Beth Rudden from Bast.ai
As we enter a new era of readily accessible generative AI tools, the ethical implications of these technologies become increasingly important. In a recent episode of Trending in Education, host Mike Palmer sat down with Beth Rudden, the Chairwoman and CEO of Bast.ai, to discuss ChatGPT and other large language models.
Beth Rudden brings over 20 years of experience in Data Science and AI, including a successful tenure at IBM. In this thought-provoking conversation, she explores why ChatGPT is prone to “mansplaining” and how this phenomenon may be related to the Dunning Kruger effect. Furthermore, Rudden challenges us to rethink our relationship with data and its harvesting through the lens of an “honorable harvest,” as described in Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer.
Throughout the discussion, Rudden provides insights into the democratization of AI and the implications for society as a whole. By making AI accessible to all, we are faced with new challenges and ethical considerations that require thoughtful reflection and nuanced understanding.
