Ben WaberI spent a lot of time driving today, but on the plus side I was also able to listen to lots of talks for my #AcademicRunPlaylist! (1/9)
First was an incredible talk by Conrad Miller on #discrimination in #hiring at the #SSRC. While it's been known for awhile that employers are segregated on race, Miller's research looking at founder race effects and other factors is eye-opening. Highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWYpOn9TQws (2/9)
Discrimination in Hiring: Why Do Firms Vary So Much in Whom They Hire?
Next was an engaging panel on the state of regulation of international data flows at @CPDPconferences with Tamar Kaldani, Bruno Giancarelli, Alex Joel, and Juliana Muller. This discussion provides a lot of context on the amendment of convention 108 and what that means globally https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85C_ko3WinQ (3/9)
WHAT WILL CHANGE IN 2024?
Next was the Atlantic Council's launch of their scaling trust on the web report, with notable speakers/panelists including @rightsduff and @ruchowdh https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJX82vGW_pA (4/9)
Report launch: Scaling Trust on the Web
Next was an informative @CPDPconferences panel on global #AI governance in policy and within industry with Juha Heikkila, Denise Wong, Karine Perset, and Dennis Hirsch. I particularly like Hirsch's description of the trends in corporate AI governance approaches https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOiRvJidgTY (5/9)
GLOBAL AI GOVERNANCE: POLICY AND PRACTICE
Next was a fantastic discussion with Gina Poe on the cognitive #neuroscience of #sleep at the #LearningSalon. This is the best talk on the function and benefits of sleep I've ever heard, and the Q&A following the initial talk is extremely rich as well. Highly recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gp5HaIlwjN4 (6/9)
