Continuing our series run about model validation. In this episode, the hosts focus on aspects of performance, why we need to do statistics correctly, and not use metrics without understanding how they work, to ensure that models are evaluated in a meaningful way.
For decades, artificial intelligence, or AI, was the engine of high-level STEM research. Most consumers became aware of the technology’s power and potential through internet platforms like Google and Facebook, and retailer Amazon. Today, AI is essential across a vast array of industries, including healthcare, banking, retail, and manufacturing. But its game-changing promise to do things like improve efficiency, bring down costs, and accelerate research and development has been tempered of late with worries that these complex, opaque systems may do more societal harm than economic good.
According to the White House, the Executive Order establishes new standards for AI safety and security, protects Americans' privacy, advances equity and civil rights, stands up for consumers and workers, promotes innovation and competition, advances American leadership around the world, and more.
Google published a policy agenda to promote a collaborative approach between private sector AI companies and governments to promote a legal framework for regulations that maximize AI opportunities while also addressing preventing harm to civil society.
In the 1990s, America chose to avoid regulating new digital technologies as they arose. Today, as AI takes center stage, even those leading technology companies urge a new approach to regulation. There is no excuse for our country to continue sanctioning a regulatory Wild West in the digital sector. It is past time to establish some guardrails.
Facebook, which was created in 2004, amassed 100 million users in just four and a half years. The speed and scale of its growth was unprecedented. In 2015, the platform’s role in violating citizens’ privacy and its potential for political manipulation was exposed by the Cambridge Analytica scandal. Around the same time, in Myanmar, the social network amplified disinformation and calls for violence against the Rohingya, an ethnic minority in the country, which culminated in a genocide that began in 2016. Defenders of Facebook say that these impacts were unintended and unforeseeable. Critics claim that, instead of moving fast and breaking things, social media companies should have proactively avoided ethical catastrophe. But both sides agree that new technologies can give rise to ethical nightmares, and that should make business leaders — and society — very, very nervous.
