EP06 - Between Two Bots with Dr. Dorothea Baur
Welcome to the Between Two Bots podcast. In this podcast, we discuss the cultural, technological, and ethical implications of artificial intelligence and AI-based decisions. A discussion that is so important to have as it affects us all. Especially now, that our relationship with machines is changing as we move from H2H, to H2M, to M2M interactions. AI becomes more pervasive and has a bigger impact on how we live and how and the work that we do.
This week's guest is Dr. Dorothea Baur. Dr. Dorothea Baur is an independent consultant who provides ethics strategy consulting for decision-makers in tech and finance. At the intersection of technology, society, and the environment, companies are often confronted with ethical questions. The challenge is to find credible answers to these questions without losing sight of business reality. She offers consulting, speaking, and teaching services on AI & Ethics, CSR & sustainability, and ESG and sustainable finance.
