A Call for Responsible AI Practices: Brandie Nonnecke of UC Berkeley Urges Investors to Take Action for Women in AI

Women In Ai Nonnecke
Nonnecke also co-directors the Berkeley Center for Law and Technology, where she leads projects on AI, platforms and society, and the UC Berkeley AI Policy Hub, an initiative to train researchers to develop effective AI governance and policy frameworks. I’ve been working in responsible AI governance for nearly a decade. First, The University of California was the first university to establish responsible AI principles and a governance structure to better ensure responsible procurement and use of AI. For women entering the AI field, my advice is threefold: Seek knowledge relentlessly, as AI is a rapidly evolving field. Investors have the power to shape the industry’s direction by making responsible AI practices a critical factor in their investment decisions.

Techcrunch Disrupt San Francisco 2018 Day 3
For the next few weeks, TechCrunch’s robotics newsletter Actuator will be running Q&As with some of the top minds in robotics. Large language models like ChatGPT can allow robots and humans to communicate in natural language. Robot “singularities” are a fundamental problem for all robot arms; they are very different from Kurzweil’s hypothetical point in time when AI surpasses humans. Robot singularities are points in space where a robot stops unexpectedly and must be manually reset by a human operator. For repetitive robot motions, singularities can be avoided by tedious manual fine-tuning of repetitive robot motions to adjust them such that they never encounter singularities.
