The vulnerabilities of human nature – taking control of tech

Are you looking for new ways to lead your business or invest in your personal development, in a world of exponentially accelerating change? As our world becomes increasingly reliant on digital technology such as AI, behavioural science can help us to design AI that makes a positive impact.

Join Nick Chater and Shweta Singh for two lightning talks to show you the kind of inspirational insights you can experience on the Warwick Executive Diplomas.

Amplifiers in the Echo Chamber: How the internet exaggerates five psychological frailties - Nick Chater
The internet is a wonderful invention, and most of our daily lives now centre around it's power, from controlling our heating to managing our finances. But it also plays a huge role in our professional lives.

In Nick's talk we discover how our behaviours and decision making can change in the world of social media.

Mitigating Human Biases via Responsible Artificial Intelligence - Shweta Singh
To understand AI, you must understand human behaviour.

This endeavour doesn’t just require computer science, but also psychology, sociology, economics, philosophy, behavioural science – we must leverage all these to understand how we become what we are.

Shweta's vision is to harness the power of AI and work hand in hand with authorities and industry to design responsible AI technology for a positive impact.

AI which can understand at a deeper level the origin of discrimination and bias could be ground breaking. As a leader you must face up to this responsibility. If you don’t, who will?
