The world of business for good is complex and fast moving, and it can be challenging to keep up with the new ideas, technologies and innovations driving positive change. So at Pioneers Post, we’ve decided to call in the experts to help us – and you – to make sense of it all: welcome to the Good Experts Podcast.
In the first episode, Pioneers Post’s Anna Patton and co-host Matt Haworth, CEO of Impact Reporting, quiz their guests on one of the hottest – yet most controversial – topics of recent months: artificial intelligence.
If you’re running an ethical or purpose driven-business, AI can become a tool for doing more good, but this is often untested ground, so it’s not without risks – notably due to its detrimental effects on people and planet. So, as Anna puts it, “how should we do AI the social enterprise way?”
Anna and Matt are joined by Simon Glenister of SE100 award-winning Noise Solution, a social enterprise that matches young people with music professionals to learn new skills and boost self-confidence, and Gina Romero, founder of Mettamatch, an ethical data and AI services company that provides AI job opportunities to underserved women in the Philippines.
The experts explore different ways AI can drive positive impact – from improving impact measurement to creating valuable jobs. Plus: good practice advice on how to safeguard against the negative risks associated with AI, such as protecting privacy.
Listen to the experts now.
