If you work with data, it’s time we talked about the possible gap in your mastery…
Data and AI Ethics are topics that most data leaders and professionals don’t learn in school, or on the job.
But as the volume of data grows and the impact of ML & AI algorithms continues to increase, understanding the ethical implications of our work – and how to prevent & mitigate ethical lapses – is more important than ever.
Just ask Chris Bruehl !
If you’ve been around for a while, you may have seen that he recently released a course on Data & AI Ethics. In today’s article, he gives a preview of why ethics is a critical area of study for data professionals.
Here’s some of what he’s covering:
? Law ≠ Ethics
? Ethical Data Stewardship
? The Risks of Generative AI
Here’s an excerpt:?
“Our digital footprints continue to expand as our lives are increasingly documented and conducted online. I honestly have no idea how many companies have my email address, home address, phone number, birth date, and other sensitive personal information.?
I should have a better idea, but quite frankly I’ve given up on having any sort of digital privacy. That said, I do place an implicit level of trust in companies when I pass over my information, whether it’s to communicate with a doctor, transfer money, or buy something on Amazon.?
And that’s a very important point - when users give you their personal information, they are trusting you to keep it secure and confidential, and assume it will only be used for obvious reasons.”

Looking for a SQL Server / PowerBI / SSRS job
1 周I met this like 15 years ago when working in Oncology research. Full Names, birthdates, SSNs... everything unencrypted etc. Nearly had a heart attack. So I went to the in-house attorney and asked what to do. And basically took out every bit of PII i could but still get the job done.
