Google sets up global council on A.I.
Google is launching a global advisory council to consider ethical issues around artificial intelligence and other emerging technologies. The council, which is expected to publish a report at the end of this year, includes technology experts, digital ethicists, and people with public policy backgrounds.
The group is expected to provide recommendations for Google, and other companies and researchers, working in areas such as facial recognition software. "We want to have the most informed and thoughtful conversations we can," Walker said on stage at the MIT Technology Review event in San Francisco. "We want to sit down with the council and see what agenda they want to set."
