CEPS Tech Podcast

With the rapid ascension of AI, the world is in an ever quickening race for the supremacy of this nascent technology. The areas of influence are being divided between organisations, countries and governments as they jostle for leading positions. For the EU, some big questions need answering for all involved. Where will the EU become a leader in AI? What are its strengths? How will it compete with the domination by the USA and China?   In this first episode of the CEPS Tech Podcast series on AI we will be looking to answer these questions and decide whether the EU will forge ahead in this AI race, or fall behind.   Our host Tom Parker is joined by co-host Andrea Renda, Director of Research at CEPS, a well-known expert in AI governance and policy and Professor at the European University Institute. Joining them both to help unpick this topic are two leading experts in the AI field.  Pierre-Alexandre Balland, Chief Data Scientist at CEPS as well as a Professor at Harvard and Utrecht Universities gives us the data behind the story, painting a picture of where the EU is in this AI race. Aleksandra Przegalińska is a Polish futurist, Associate Professor of Management and Artificial Intelligence as well as vice-rector at Kozminski University in Poland, extols the virtues of the EU’s experience in research and regulation and how the EU can build a global reputation in AI.  For further reading on CEPS’ and Andrea Renda’s research on other interesting AI topics follow this link. For more information on the data mentioned by Pierre-Alexandre Balland see this publication.  For more on Aleksandra Przegalińska’s book register here to join the CEPS book talk on 24th June.  Hosted on Acast.
