The Ai Element

What is data feudalism? Should machines adapt to us or should we adapt to machines?  How can we reinstate agency and control when it comes to our personal data?  In this bonus episode, Neil Lawrence, Professor of Machine Learning at the University of Cambridge, joins Element AI’s Head of Government and Public Policy Marc Etienne Ouimette to answer these questions and many more. Neil was featured in a previous episode of The AI Element, “In Data We Trust?”, in which he spoke about data trusts and data protection. In this extended interview he shares more of his thoughts on the future of AI and the growing data divide.  1:04 - The Alan Turing Institute - Professor Neil Lawrence  1:34 - Cambridge appoints first Deepmind professor of machine learning  2:07 - Jonnie Penn  2:25 - AI for social good workshop  3:02 - Isaac Asimov’s Foundation - Wikipedia  12:24 - Data Trusts could allay our privacy fears - The Guardian  23:05 - Sylvie Delacroix - Twitter  23:09 - Bottom-Up Data Trusts: Distributing the ‘One Size
