In this interactive Media/Computer Science event with University of Surrey, we take a close look at ethical issues in the Media which are being driven by the emergence and evolution of Artificial Intelligence.
Led by our inspiring speakers, Peter Bradley and Minsak Nanang, we will address four big ethical debates affecting the Media which are all currently being played out in our legal system, have a profound impact on wider society and have significant implications for the technical design of AI systems.
AI ‘stealing’ media content (for training)
Fake content (news, imagery/video & relationships)
Bias within models/algorithms (gender, age, ethnicity)
Impact of AI on employment (both within the media or tech sectors).
In a chaired discussion, Peter and Minsak will engage the audience in a debate around central questions of deep tech, media impact, ethical considerations and policy responses.
These issues are of critical importance in both academic disciplines, Media and Computer Science, and we look forward to engaging in an interdisciplinary way with your questions and arguments.
