Fair game: the ethics of telco fraud
By Laura Summers
How do we connect high-level principles with day-to-day product decision making? How do we move past the AI Ethics hype and start trying, testing and implementing practical approaches?
These questions are at the heart of Laura’s work, and in this talk she shares stories, discoveries, and decisions from her time as an ‘ethics ops’ consultant embedded with a small team in a big telco.
From improving the science bit of data science, to developing the collective sensitivity of the team, to designing recourse for false positives, tune in for pragmatic pointers and actionable take-aways that you can try with your team right away.
