Growing Digital Ethics in Practice

Ethics has become a buzzword throughout the tech industry, with businesses talking about digital ethics, AI ethics, or even (sorry in advance for using such a terrible word) ‘tethics’, but significant questions remain on how ethics more broadly is operationalised.

In this event, Caitlin will describe some of the most pressing ethics issues we face today, and what strategies and frameworks can be applied to address challenges relating to bias, transparency and more.
