Episode Description

In this episode of The Mind Takeaway podcast, we explore the fascinating and complex world of AI ethics with Camila, an AI ethics research expert at SAP. We explore the development of AI ethics over the past decade and its crucial role in ensuring that AI technologies are designed and used responsibly and ethically. Camila sheds light on the significant gaps in AI development, the ethical concerns surrounding AI, and the importance of safeguarding human rights and societal values amidst rapid technological advancements.

We discuss the challenges posed by biased and incomplete data, the Western-centric nature of current AI technologies, and the implications of AI-generated data. Camilla emphasises the need for a balanced approach to AI development, integrating ethical principles into the engineering cycle and fostering collaboration among diverse stakeholders, including policymakers, legal experts, and designers.

We also touch on the EU AI Act, its impact on consumer and business AI technologies, and the importance of transparency, explainability, and quality testing in AI systems. The conversation highlights the necessity of slowing down and reflecting on the broader implications of AI, including environmental considerations and the right to disconnect.

Although I never planned it this way, I had two parallel careers before co-founding my own company. I performed as an electronic musician at numerous international festivals and clubs, including the Glastonbury and Creamfields festivals. At the same time, I served as a people manager for large-scale organisations in Europe and the Middle East. Balancing such diverse careers helped bring the benefits of creativity into the workplace and gave me valuable problem-solving and leadership experience. My travels through business, music performances, and personal adventures have taken me to 50 countries and five continents. Those experiences allowed me to cultivate meaningful relationships with people from many different cultures and backgrounds. Throughout my career, I learned how to maximise individuals' potential and create the right conditions for creativity and innovation to flourish. By fostering diverse thinking and developing a psychologically safe environment, I am skilled in bringing out the best in others and showing others how to build high-performing teams from their own experience. My leadership approach has always been to trust first, nurture growth through opportunities that arise from failure and uncertainty. Knowing first-hand the value of communication and self-reflection, I seek to guide people to reconnect with their wisdom, creativity, and passion for life. Over the last two decades, I developed hundreds of individuals and high-performing teams for Orange Telecom in the United Kingdom and Zurich International Life in the United Arab Emirates, and Booking.com in Germany. Currently, I work as a creativity consultant, certified executive coach, and mentor.
