Eliminating the digital gender divide with Women in Tech's Ayumi Moore Aoki

The European Parliament and Council are currently negotiating the Artificial Intelligence Act, which introduces common regulatory and legal framework for Artificial Intelligence (AI) in all domains except the military. However, the negotiations pose several challenges for legislators. How should the risk categories be established? Do they take into account unintended impacts of AI? What divergences between public and private sectors could emerge, and how can they be adressed? And how is the AI Act going to help protecting fundamental rights and values? 

We will answer these questions with Maria-Manuel Leitão-Marques, MEP from Portugal, who is the Vice-Chair of the Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection and a member of the OECD Parliamentary Group on AI; and Ilina Georgieva, research scientist working on AI, cyber regulation and cyber norms at the Netherlands Organisation for Applied Scientific Research (TNO), an independent research organisation. 

This podcast is second in the 2022 series on Artificial intelligence, brought to you by the OECD’s Global Parliamentary Network and the European Parliament’s Panel for the Future of Science and Technology, also known as STOA.

The Artificial Intelligence Act: addressing the divergence between the public and private sectors

Artificial intelligence played a pivotal role during the COVID-19 pandemic, from hastening diagnoses to supporting contract tracing and more. In this sense, the pandemic has already shown us how A.I. can benefit healthcare. But this seems just the beginning of revolution. What else can be done? What are the limits and risks of using artificial intelligence in health care? And how can we best ensure that it is both effective and trustworthy? 

We’ll answer these questions with Lina Gálvez Muñoz, MEP from Spain, Vice Chair of the Committee on Industry, Research and Energy, member of the European Parliament’s Panel for the Future of Science and Technology (STOA) and of the OECD Parliamentary Group on AI; and Karim Lekadir, head of EUCanImage, a four year AI research project aimed at making advances in oncology which has 20 partners across 11 countries.

This podcast is first in a series in 2022 on Artificial intelligence, brought to you by the OECD’s Global Parliamentary Network and the European Parliament’s Panel for the Future of Science and Technology, also known as STOA.

AI is poised to revolutionise healthcare. Building trust will be key.

While the European Union is developing the Data Act, the Data Governance Act and the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Act, the issue of the data governance remains at the fore. In today’s podcast, we will try to answer some of these questions: What are the policy options for Europe’s data governance framework, especially with regard to AI, that align with a data justice perspective? How to foster a positive vision of AI as contributing to public goods and creating public value? How to recognise the rights and interests of different communities in data? To what extend is it possible to foresee risks and vulnerabilities when legislating on digital?

We will address these questions with the help of Pernille Weiss, Member of the European Parliament’s  Committees on Industry, Research and Energy and on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety, and Linnet Taylor, Associate Professor of Data Ethics, Law and Policy at the Tilburg Institute for Law, Technology, and Society (TILT), where she leads the Global Data Justice project. 


This podcast is third in the 2022 podcast series on Artificial intelligence brought to you by the OECD’s Global Parliamentary Network and the European Parliament’s Panel for the Future of Science and Technology, also known as STOA.

Governing data and AI for all: which model for a sustainable and just data governance?

As technology continues to advance, we're more connected than ever. But with more benefits also come more risks. How can we ensure that we are protected from digital threats? In December 2022, the OECD released its Digital Security Recommendations to help keep individuals, businesses and governments secure online. Audrey Plonk, head of Digital Economy Policy division for the OECD's Science, Technology and Innovation Directorate, explains the Digital Security Recommendations and what they hope to achieve.

Rapossa - Shanti (Goldcap Remix)

Speaker(s): Vince Cable, Howard Davies, Angel Gurria | Now in its 50th year, the OECD has established itself as the leading international economic organisation for socio-economic analysis, best practice policy based on peer review, benchmarking and internationally comparable indicators and statistics. Its achievements have made a major contribution to both economic development within its membership and global economic issues. Bringing together business, think–tanks, academia, government and the media, the seminar will address the economic challenges facing policy makers working to transition the world economy from crisis to a period of strong, sustainable and balanced growth. The seminar will also foster a debate on future challenges that tomorrow’s economic policy makers will face, as the OECD looks forward to the next 50 years. Wed, 16 Mar 2011 10:30:00 GMT

OECD at 50, Better Policies for Better Lives: Growth, Skills and Jobs [Audio]

If you’re scratching your head over stuck wages and dwindling job benefits, massive corporate outsourcing is one place to look. David Weil, author of The Fissured Workplace, explains how companies’ use of indirect contractors is one reason wages aren’t going up. David Weil is the Dean and Professor at Brandeis University’s Heller School of Social Policy and Management. He served as US Wage and Hour Administrator at the Department of Labor during the last three years of the Obama administration.

The mystery of stagnating wages. David Weil elucidates.

Most people spend their evenings kicking back with a book or whatever’s on Netflix. In Finland, they’re teaching themselves artificial intelligence (AI). Computer scientist Teemu Roos talks about the easy-to-follow massive online course on machine learning he designed with tech firm Reaktor. And which the Finnish government bank-rolled. Teemu Roos is Associate Professor of Computer Science at the University of Helsinki.
