We always say that the DevDiscuss podcast is about tackling the burning questions in tech that affect all our lives as developers. This week’s topic is one that fits that description to a T: Ethics. Ethical challenges and triumphs, which have been especially visible and centered in tech news over the past few years, and rightfully so. I’m sure you can think of quite a few ethical dilemmas that you, your team, or various high-profile companies have faced throughout your experience in an increasingly technical world.
@ben and I were joined by two guests for this episode:
- Nashlie Sephus is the CTO of Partpic, which was acquired by Amazon in 2016. They are now an Applied Science Manager at Amazon Web Services.
- Abram Walton is the Director of the Center for Lifecycle Innovation Management and former Director for the Center of Ethics and Leadership at the Florida Institute of Technology.
In this episode, Ben, Nashlie, Abram, and I discuss
- Fairness and bias in AI
- Ethical considerations in tech leadership
- The role of regulation in technology
... and much more!
