Emotion recognition technology raises questions about bias, privacy and mass surveillance.
Virtual assistants and robots are frequently given female attributes. To curb the massive use of such gendering in AI, we need to better understand the deep roots of this phenomenon.
Elon Musk’s brain-machine interface technology could bring humans and computers closer together than ever before, and herald a new frontier in healthcare
Artificial intelligence is probably already helping many students write essays. Schools and unis need to start talking about the ethical implications now.
Humans often stumble when they encounter the unexpected, but they tend to adapt and move on. Artificial intelligence systems, not so much.
The public holds self-driving cars to incredibly high safety standards – and we’re working to meet them.
The new Alphabet Workers Union is making clear that changes must be put in place, both in education and on the job, to allow engineers to start taking responsibility for the social impact of their work.
Even the Oxford English Dictionary contains traces of sexism – it’s little wonder that our translation tools do too.
The CCTV ecosystem is evolving – but it’s still a sparse patchwork with limited efficacy in reducing or prosecuting crime.
Using a simulation, we found scenarios where AI regulations could be most effective.
