Episode 4 is now live and features none other than Kate Devitt! Kate is an internationally recognised leader in ethical #robotics, #autonomoussystems and #AI. In this episode we dive into some very big topics from human flourishing in the context of AI to the implications of AI and social media on human well-being, knowledge, and communication. Kate leaves no stone unturned, sharing her wealth of knowledge with humour and grace. It was an absolute pleasure to have Kate join us for this episode.

2/ Once you identify a principle, you can repeat the experiment with the same results, and then apply those results on a large scale in the real world. What puzzles me about the current movement towards AI is that developers want to create increasingly evolved systems. By definition, they will not be able to understand these systems. The aim is to have systems that function on their own without human input and, therefore, without human control. #ArtificialIntelligence #AutonomousSystems

As an #introduction - I’m an #oceanographer that literally follows the dots! I design, build and deploy #imaging systems that measure #marine #particles and use them as tracers to visualise #turbulence. It’s fun to apply these techniques to other things too - like tracking foraging #seabirds in flight. Teach #dataanalysis #optics and #autonomoussystems.

I'm waiting at the airport for my flight to #Montreal for the upcoming #ICAO #RPAS Symposium so I thought this would be a good time to share a little bit about myself.

I'm an #aerospaceengineer who spent some time working in #safety and #certification of emerging aviation technologies. I made the transition to academia a few years ago and now I'm a senior research fellow at the School of Engineering in the #AustralianNationalUniversity. I am also a fellow with #TASDCRC. I research #SafetyManagementSystems for emerging technologies, #HumanMachineTeaming and #certification of #AutonomousSystems. I also develop short courses on these topics - one of these courses is currently open for registration https://cce.anu.edu.au/AUTONOMOUS.

I also co-host and co-produce the #AlgorithmicFutures website alongside @lizwilliams.

In my spare time I like to #sew, #draw, #paint and #read.

Don't mistake about it. It is not an easy topic. What if the machines can achieve a 90% civilian victims decrease? Should we still hold to our positions and forbid autonomous weapons? But if it is allowed, who will be responsible of the remaining 10%? These are still dead people. It's a very tough question, and I must admit I don't have any certainty about it. If you have elements about this topic, I'd be glad to talk with you. #artificialIntelligence #autonomousSystems https://t.co/iRvk0W28WH
