We discuss Julie’s extensive expertise in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) and engage in a deep exploration of the intricate relationship between law and Data Privacy within the context of AI and ML technologies. Julie begins by dispelling the common misconception that AI is a recent development, tracing its evolution back to the 1950s and 60s. She emphasizes that AI is not a singular technology but rather a category encompassing various subfields, including machine learning and natural language processing. Throughout the episode, the significance of understanding data lineage and ownership is underscored, particularly for companies seeking to leverage AI effectively. Julie also highlights the inherent limitations of AI, emphasizing that it cannot replace human judgment in complex and nuanced tasks. Moreover, she acknowledges the persistent challenge of bias in AI systems, shedding light on the complexities of mitigating bias entirely. The discussion concludes by stressing the importance of comprehensive data collection, as the absence of data can lead to skewed results and erroneous conclusions. This episode offers valuable insights into the legal and ethical dimensions of AI and Data Privacy, encouraging a more nuanced understanding of these technologies in today's evolving landscape and her hopes for Data Privacy in the future.
