How can ethical and explainable AI help protect the most vulnerable in society today?

One unwelcome aspect of this pandemic is the increased exploitation of vulnerable people. Yet the application of technology and approaches in use elsewhere in the world can enhance our ability to, for example, safeguard children and the victims of domestic abuse, to intercept human trafficking, or protect vulnerable consumers.

SAS is investing over $1bn in AI development and SAS R&D in Glasgow are at the forefront of developing AI-powered solutions that can use high quality, consistent data to deliver real-time analysis in a responsible, safe fashion, for the good of the citizen and society.

In this session you will learn;

What is meant by ethical and explainable AI in the context of decision-making

How AI can provide automated decision support

How AI can be used to identify threats of risk and harm

How AI can mean the difference between support and neglect, safety and tragedy, protection and failure
