Importance of privacy in AI

Just how much of your data is being processed by AI systems? And to what end? Most of us don’t have a clue what’s happening to the data we share with businesses on a day to day basis. We don’t even know what data is being captured in the first place. Throw AI assistants into the mix and we’re even more lost than we were.

With algorithms making decisions and AI assistants mediating our interactions, understanding what data is being captured, how it’s stored and used is crucial if we’re ever going to fully trust AI services and the companies that run them. Yet most companies are way behind here. Most have big blind spots.

Joining us to shed light on this and reveal these blind spots is Patricia Thaine, CEO, Private AI.
