AI for Social Good, Fairness in AI design, Working with NGOs, and Women in the workplace: ex-Google Kritika Prakash | Tech My Breath Away # 4
This is the second part, of our discussion with Kritika Prakash, ex-Google, currently pursuing her Ph.D., at the University of Chicago.
Abbhinav (123 of AI) and co-host Debayan (Microsoft), go into detail with Kritika, on the need for regulation in technology, particularly privacy policies, the use of reinforcement learning strategies in healthcare program engagement, practical outcomes of her work at Google, the therapeutic role of art, an open-source tool for generative AI privacy, and coping with impostor syndrome.
KRITIKA REVEALS:
BEST MOMENTS:
“Privacy will always be important no matter where the machine learning field is headed.”
“The nascent nature of technology requires catching up in regulation, especially concerning privacy implications related to machine learning.”
“Identifying individuals most likely to benefit from a program poses challenges due to limited resources.”
“Collaborative efforts between tech companies like Google have shown improved engagement levels among pregnant women through reinforcement-learning strategies.”
“I completely lose track of time... art has been a meditative process for me.”
“Success cannot be defined by any metric.”
