📰 AI is a multi-billion dollar industry. It’s underpinned by an invisible and exploited workforce 📰 Our Executive Director, Ganna Pogrebna, has just published an insightful piece in The Conversation Australia + NZ about the often overlooked, but crucial, role of data labellers in the AI supply chain. These labelled datasets are the lifeblood of AI models, powering their ability to function effectively. Yet, many tech giants outsource this work to data labelling factories where workers are raising concerns about conditions that, "amount to modern day slavery." Responsible AI has a human element, companies can ensure fairness by embedding human rights into the entire AI supply chain through a human right-centred design approach. This not only improves workers' conditions but also drives better quality, builds brand loyalty, and reduces #reputational #risks. By prioritising ethical AI, businesses can attract #trust, #talent, and foster #sustainable #growth. The future of AI belongs to companies that balance innovation with responsibility. 👉 Read Ganna’s full article here: https://lnkd.in/gG2dz7pD #ResponsibleAI #HumanRightsInAI #AIethics #DataLabelling #Sustainability #EthicalTech Charles Sturt University Charles Sturt Research

A podcast you should not miss: “Can AI run my business?” with professor Ganna Pogrebna, an Executive Director of the AI and Cyber Futures Institute, Lead for behavioural data science at The Alan Turing Institute and Professor of Business Analytics and Data Science at The University of Sydney Business School. “I want AI to do my laundry and dishes so I can do art, I do not want AI to do my art so I can do laundry and dishes” pos written by fantasy author Joanna Maciejewska's 5 months ago, hit Twitter and became legendary in the artistic community. Creative copilots for illustrators, sound designers, and copywriters hit the success record. Over the night,” Artists have become replaceable, haven't they?” Today, a late piece at Harvard Business Review written by Dr Graham Kenny, Prof. Marek Kowalkiewicz, and Dr Kim Oosthuizen, “How CEOs Are Using Gen AI for Strategic Planning,” illustrates AI superpowers and limitations in strategic decision-making with some examples across the funeral and agro-industries on “How Gen AI Can—and Can’t—help” exactly when it comes to classic strategic five-year planning. Join the “Make Your Innovations Work” podcast on October 1st to discuss whether AI can already run your business so you can do your laundry and dishes. Do we need everything to become empowered with AI? How can AI improve managerial decision-making and trigger managerial burnout? Join us live on October 1st at 12 pm UK time, 1 pm CET time.
