Join us for an illuminating conversation about building trust and fairness in artificial intelligence. WestEd’s Data Integration Support Center (DISC) presents a candid discussion that will explore the real-world challenges of implementing AI responsibly within organizations.
This conversation is presented as part of DISC’s Data Privacy Week activities, as we promote privacy awareness, data protection, and fostering trust among individuals and businesses.
Assessment expert Dr. Sarah Quesen, along with Baron Rodriguez, DISC Executive Director and VP of WestEd AI, will take you behind the scenes to share their firsthand experience in developing a framework for responsible AI use. They will discuss what it truly takes to build an organizational culture that prioritizes fairness and quality when working with AI systems.
This conversation will address practical questions that matter to organizations considering AI adoption: How do you ensure AI-generated content meets your quality standards? What resources and staff expertise do you need? What processes should be in place before implementing AI in your daily operations? Drawing from their work in educational assessment, our speakers will share valuable insights that apply across various sectors and organizations.
Whether you’re a state data leader, policymaker, privacy officer, or legal counsel, this discussion will provide clear, actionable insights into establishing responsible AI practices within your organization. Join us to learn about the challenges, successes, and essential considerations for implementing AI in a way that aligns with your organization’s values and responsibilities.
