Episode 2: AI & Equity

11 November 2024

The show’s first episode focuses on AI and Equity, featuring an interview with Australia’s eSafety Commissioner, Julie Inman Grant, and discussions with leading academics across the AI landscape: Associate Professor Ramona Vijeyarasa from University of Technology Sydney and Dr Juliette Tobias-Webb from Charles Sturt University. The episode explores the complexities and opportunities of championing equitable outcomes in this fast-moving space.

We buy cars based on what their safety record is, but we haven’t had any of those requirements for technology companies. We haven’t required them to embed virtual seatbelts or erect digital guardrails and I think we’re reaching that tipping point.
