In today’s rapidly changing technological landscape, the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) on the well-being of society cannot be overstated. AI and ML have emerged as powerful tools that reshape industries and transform our relationship with technology. While these advancements have brought many benefits, they raise important societal issues. It is crucial to examine how AI and ML influence areas such as healthcare, education, the economy, privacy, and the overall fabric of our society.
By understanding the complex implications of these technologies, we can navigate their intersection with human welfare and ensure their responsible and ethical implementation. This examination is essential for policymakers, researchers, industry leaders, and all individuals.
In the second episode, we were happy to talk with Jason Pridmore, who is affiliated with Erasmus University, a SPATIAL consortium member. Jason holds the Vice Dean of Education position at Erasmus School of History, Culture, and Communication. Additionally, he spearheads several research initiatives that make a positive difference in society.
Our discussion began with an overview and an exploration of the benefits and advancements AI and ML have already brought to our lives. As we gazed into the future, our conversation shifted to envisioning how AI and ML will continue to shape society’s well-being.
In this podcast episode, we embarked on a domain where AI and ML catalyse societal progress. These technologies can redefine our world, making it more equitable, efficient, and sustainable. Yet, our collective responsibility is to navigate this path wisely, ensuring that the well-being of individuals and society remains at the forefront of these advancements.
