Renee Cummings is an AI ethicist, data activist, and criminologist. She's a professor of practice in data science and data activist in residence at the University of Virginia. Her work focuses on how we need to rethink data science and AI within the context of justice and equity. We're so excited to have you as our guest for today's show.
Ethics in AI is a broad, deep, and tough subject. It's also, arguably, one of the most important subjects for analysts, data scientists, and organizations overall to deliberately and determinedly tackle as a standard part of how they do work. On this episode, Renée Cummings, Professor of Practice in Data Science and Data Activist in Residence at the University of Virginia (among many other roles), joined us for a discussion of the subject. Her knowledge of the topic is as deep as her passion for it, and both are bordering on the limitless, so it was an incredibly informative chat!
