DESCRIPTION:Although nearly all AI regulatory documents now make reference
  to the importance of human-centring of digital systems\, Artificial inte
 lligence (AI) ethics itself is frequently reduced only to concerns of bia
 s and perhaps power consumption. While both these considerations are of i
 mmense importance—altering human lives and our ecosystem—our concerns sho
 uld go far further. Ethics is every means by which a society perpetuates 
 itself\, and as such goes deeply into rights ranging from employment\, an
 d healthcare\, to physical and perhaps cyber security. Meanwhile\, AI is 
 coming to mediate every aspect of our interactions\, yet is largely contr
 olled by a small number of transnational corporations.  [nl] [nl]\n\nIn t
 his talk I will discuss the EU's right\, competence\, and current attempt
 s to regulate the application of AI within our borders. I will use recent
  events to reconsider our understandings of rights\, sovereignty\, and de
 mocracy. [nl] [nl] \n\nJoanna J Bryson is an academic recognised for broa
 d expertise on intelligence\, its nature\, and its consequences. Holding 
 two degrees each in psychology and AI (BA Chicago\, MSc & MPhil Edinburgh
 \, PhD MIT)\, she is since 2020 the Professor of Ethics and Technology in
  the Centre for Digital Governance at Hertie School\, in Berlin. Bryson a
 dvises governments\, corporations\, and other agencies globally\, particu
 larly on AI policy. [nl] [nl]\n\nHer work has appeared in venues ranging 
 from [url=https://www.reddit.com/r/science/comments/5nqdo7/science_ama_se
 ries_im_joanna_bryson_a_professor/?rdt=39228]reddit[/url] to the journal 
 [url=https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.aal4230]Science[/url]. F
 rom 2002-2019 she was Computer Science faculty at the University of Bath\
 ; she has also been affiliated with Harvard Psychology\, Oxford Anthropol
 ogy\, The Mannheim Centre for Social Science Research\, The Konrad Lorenz
  Institute for Evolution and Cognition Research\, and the Princeton Cente
 r for Information Technology Policy. Bryson first observed the confusion 
 generated by anthropomorphised AI during her PhD\, leading to her first A
 I ethics publication “Just Another Artifact” in 1998. She is now a leader
  in AI ethics\, having since coauthored the first national-level AI ethic
 s policy\, the UK’s (2011) Principles of Robotics\, and contributed to ef
 forts by the OECD\, EU\, UN\, OSCE\, Red Cross and Google among others. I
 n June 2020\, she was one of nine experts nominated by Germany to the fou
 nding cohort of experts for the [url=https://gpai.ai/]Global Partnership 
 for AI[/url]. [nl] [nl]\n\nBryson continues to research the systems engin
 eering of AI and the cognitive science of intelligence. Her present focus
  is on the impacts of communication and computation technology on human s
 ocieties\, and new models of governance for AI and digital technology\, p
 articularly given the transnational nature of many of the institutions pr
 oviding AI infrastructure. [nl] [nl]
