Technology is driven by profits and driving innovation. AI Ethics is calling out bias in data that powers artificial intelligence. Are they on a collision path? Does AI Ethics stifle innovation?
This is the topic of discussion in several conferences, board rooms and government policy discussions. I heard hot discussion about this at SingularityNet's AGI2021 conference in a room full of enthusiastic innovators and social scientists dream up a general AI that can connect all humanity as a beneficial AI and get them on the rails of a capitalist technology industry. I heard this questioned again in EJEA 2021 conference from Kagawa University about Gandhian philosophy in building AI that does not allow for a few to profit at the expense of many. GDPR and AI policies from EU, UK and the recent AI policy from NATO all raise privacy questions about who owns the data that trains AI.
Have you stopped to think about whether AI Ethics and Responsible AI can be a business model and not just a nice to have morality call to guilt people to build a better society?
Carrot or Stick?
Many business have AI Ethics councils and frameworks ( I teach a few of this in my AI Ethics class to Masters students at Barcelona Technology School). The main driver is business risk from biased AI that harms people and comes with legal liabilities to the business.
Think of the Uber driving suing Uber for firing them believing a failed facial recognition that did not recognize a black driver and the scramble inside the business with lack of algorithmic transparency to figure out whether they were really at fault.
Think of Amazon losing the talent pipeline from its hiring algorithm that filtered out women candidates because of a feedback loop starting with a men heavy team dataset.
Can there be a way to monetize Responsible AI, do the right thing thats good for an equitable society but one that makes business sense for leaders to stop and listen?
How can business leader train for Responsible AI?
AI is here. AI is in every industry. All AI in trained by biased data with no transparency by imperfect processes.
If you are a leader of a business adopting AI everywhere from operations to product development to customer support to financial forecasts to fraud prevention to HR and legal what is the top AI leadership skill you need?
What is the C-suite AI decision making that happens in board rooms when evaluating AI driven acquisitions?
What are AI Leadership ethical dilemma discussions that affect the individual morality and business risks?
Where do leaders get the confidence to deal with the challenges of AI in a business setting?

Can you think of ways you can make responsible AI pay for itself? Do you see it as a cost in your business in modeling AI to solve for business problems? Are you a tech company having debates about cost of making AI inclusive or how to use proxies in datasets to show or hide race?
