Description
I have to roll my eyes at the constant click bait headlines on technology and ethics.
If we want to get anything done, we need to go deeper.
That’s where I come in. I’m Reid Blackman, a former philosophy professor turned AI ethics advisor to government and business.
If you’re looking for a podcast that has no tolerance for the superficial, try out Ethical Machines.
