We are very pleased to announce that our third speaker in this series of colloquia will be:
\nDr. Annette Zimmermann (York\, Harvard) - "Structural Injustice\, Doxastic Negligence\, and Medical AI"
\nDr. Annette Zimmermann \;is a political philosopher at the \;University of York \;working on the ethics of artificial intelligence and machine learning. Annette is also a Technology &\; Human Rights Fellow at \;Harvard University.
\nDr. Zimmermann's research explores questions like: what is algorithmic injustice\, and how do its effects compound over time? What role do risk and uncertainty play in this context? What does it mean to trust AI? Whose voices should we prioritize in collective decisions about AI design and deployment&mdash\;and whose voices are currently excluded? Whose rights are most at risk? How can we place AI under meaningful democratic control&mdash\;and would that solve the problem of algorithmic injustice? \;
\nAbout the Summer Colloquium Series on Stereotyping &\; Medical AI
\nThe aim of this series on Stereotyping and Medical AI is to explore philosophical and in particular ethical and epistemological issues around stereotyping in medicine\, with a specific focus on the use of artificial intelligence in health contexts. We are particularly interested in whether medical AI that uses statistical data to generate predictions about individual patients can be said to &ldquo\;stereotype&rdquo\; patients\, and whether we should draw the same ethical and epistemic conclusions about stereotyping by artificial agents as we do about stereotyping by human agents\, i.e.\, medical professionals. \;
\nOther questions we are interested in exploring as part of this series include but are not limited to the following:
\nWe will be tackling these topics through a series of online colloquia hosted by the \;Sowerby Philosophy and Medicine Project \;at King's College London. The colloquium series will feature a variety contributors from across the disciplinary spectrum. We hope to ensure a discursive format with time set aside for discussion and Q&\;A by the audience. This event is open to the public and all are welcome. \;
