Bias, transparency and governance in automated decision making

As they look at the great landscape of AI, organisations are getting to picture machine learning in finer detail. But the closer they get to the detail, the more they notice a chasm emerging between prediction and automated decision. And for no organisation does that chasm pose greater danger than those who operate in regulated industries.

In this talk, Ben Taylor, CTO of Rainbird, will discuss the challenges of turning data-first prediction into automated decision making, and how organisations can overcome them. He’ll discuss bias in data and decision making, the importance of transparency and how to embed governance into automation.
