About this episode

Ryan welcomes Sarah Bird to discuss responsible AI practices and the importance of thoughtful human/AI workflow design.

Recorded at Microsoft Build, Ryan welcomes Sarah Bird, Microsoft’s Chief Product Officer for Responsible AI, about how we can build and use AI responsibly with the NIST approach, why most irresponsible AI comes from experimentation without thought of impact, and how Microsoft is researching thoughtful human/AI workflow design to reduce unnecessary escalation.  Episode notes:  This episode was recorded at Microsoft Build .
