Description

Tune in for a chat with Monica Bowen, Human Geneticist! To the best of my plebeian, limited understanding, Monica is essentially Dr. House for rare diseases lurking in the human genome. In many ways, the ultimate data set! How does it feel to work on such personal, intimate data-- yet simultaneously be removed from patients themselves? What's next in the field?

S1E2 - Michael - Assoc. Director AI Law & Regulation @ Ada Lovelace Institute

EPISODE NOTES Ash & Michael Birtwistle, Associate Director of AI Law & Regulation at the Ada Lovelace Institute, talk about the dangerous speed of technological adoption, how we should be thinking about our data with regards to AI, and useful frictions. Special shoutout to the fact that Michael still uses a hotmail email address. The Ada Lovelace Institute is an independent research institute with a mission to ensure data and AI work for people and society. Michael's book recommendations: Everything Must Go by Dorian Lynskey - "It's all about the stories humans tell about the end of the world and what that says about us." Games: Agency as Art by C. Thi Nguyen - "Essentially an extended, accessible thesis on the idea that the reason humans find games compelling is because they represent the art form of agency."
