Dr Jacques Ludik on Business Day TV – WATCH Democratizing AI

Thinking Ahead Solutions

During the pandemic we have heard so much about the enormous promises of technology – and these promises are certainly real. During a discussion Michael Avery had with Vodacom CEO Shameel Joosub, he revealed that, using AI and machine learning, the mobile operator could tell your credit risk based on what time you woke up and started using your phone in the morning. But the technology might also alter human society and the very meaning of human life in ways we don’t spend enough time thinking about. As Youval Harari points out these range from the creation of a global useless class to the rise of data colonialism and of digital dictatorships. Avery sat down with Dr Jacques Ludik, the founder and CEO of Cortex Logic, the Machine Intelligence Institute of Africa and author of Democratizing Artificial Intelligence to benefit everyone & Johan Steyn, Chair of The Institute of Information Technology Professionals South Africa Special Interest Group on Artificial Intelligence and Robotics, to talk about the promise, challenge and democratisation of AI.
