series Charting the Landscape of Ethical AI. _

_We are delighted to welcome Dr Emma Ruttkamp__-Bloem as our final 
speaker in the seminar series. Dr. Ruttkamp-Bloem is a philosopher of 
science and technology, an AI ethics policy advisor, and a machine 
ethics researcher. She is the Chairperson of the UNESCO World Commission 
on the Ethics of Scientific Knowledge and Technology (COMEST). She is an 
expert advisory board member for the Global Commission on Responsible 
Artificial Intelligence in the Military Domain and recently joined the 
WEF's Global Future Council on Autonomous Systems. She is an associate 
editor for the Journal of Science and Engineering Ethics, and a full 
member of the International Academy for the Philosophy of Science. 
Currently, she is the Head of the Department of Philosophy, University 
of Pretoria, and leads the AI ethics group at the South African Centre 
for AI Research (CAIR)._

_Dr Ruttkamp Bloem will be presenting May 16th, 9-10:30am, on 
Responsible AI: For - or against - social justice?.  _She will start 
with a brief introduction to the notion of intergenerational justice as 
a driving concept of AI ethics, and will mention its interpretation as 
value in AI policymaking but will concentrate on real life applications 
of its embeddedness in AI ethics in the context of algorithmic 
colonialism. She will conclude with an analysis of the value of 
combining intergenerational justice with notions of design and data 
justice for realizing social justice objectives as part of reflection on 
what the notion of 'responsible AI' could possibly mean._ _
