We are joined by Aurelie Jacquet, Chair of Standards Australia, an independent not-for-profit organisation that specializes in the development and adoption of internationally-aligned standards in Australia.

Aurelie is an expert in governance, data ethics, privacy and responsible use of technology. She starts by sharing with us how her journey in the data and ethics world started. She is a lawyer by trade, who started as a litigator and then moved on to work in finance for algorithmic trading. Her interest in AI and ethics peaked in 2016, she soon realized all law initiatives regarding AI were done overseas, so she decided to venture into the world of standards and push for Australia to participate in the international standards around AI.

Quotes:

• "A use case I see that keeps coming back is 'how do you manage privacy, bias and accountability?"
• "The solution you use to address fairness and bias should strongly align with the legal principles of fairness and bias."
• "If you don't have the right control in place, or the right filters, then your output can be problematic."
