SUMMARY:Webinar: From Talk to Practice: Operationalizing AI Ethics in Tech
DESCRIPTION:For all the talk and media buzz around it\, incorporating AI Ethics into technology development continues to be challenging. Part of the difficulty is reconciling ethical principles with the company  culture and other is alignment of ethical AI practices with business processes and objectives. In our  September AI Expert webinar\, we will go beyond rhetoric to dive into practical challenges in  implementing AI Ethics principles in tech creation and how to address them.  \nFor this important and timely discussion\, we have invited Dr. Stacy Hobson\, Director\, Responsible  Tech Research\, IBM Research. Dr. Hobson will share some of the work done by her team\, including research to uncover ongoing challenges of practically embedding and operationalizing ethics\,  especially in large organizations. We will also discuss the practical methods and tools that her  team has developed to support responsible technology creation.  \nJoin us on Thursday\, September 25 at 11a ET for this much-needed discussion on how to start  redefining AI practices and culture to foster ethical technology development practices. \n  \nSPEAKER/S PROFILE: \n  \n \nDr. Stacy Hobson is Director of the Responsible Technologies Research group at IBM Research. Her group’s research focuses on understanding the societal impacts of technology and promoting tech practices that minimize harms\, biases\, and other negative outcomes. Her team also develops practical methods and tools to support responsible technology creation. Her prior research has spanned multiple areas including topics such as addressing social inequities through technology\, AI transparency\, data sharing platforms for governmental crisis management and risk management techniques for financial services. \nStacy has authored more than 20 peer-reviewed publications and holds 16 US patents.

SUMMARY:Reading Circle:  Nannie Helen Burroughs: A Tower of Strength in the Labor World
DESCRIPTION:BOOK TITLE: Nannie Helen Burroughs: A Tower of Strength in the Labor World \nAUTHOR: Danielle Phillips-Cunningham  \nOVERVIEW: \n \nBlack girls and women were at the forefront of the labor movements of the twentieth century. However\, many were relegated to the footnote of history and their contributions minimized or erased. \nIn her recent book\, Dr. Danielle Phillips- Cunningham\, associate professor in the School of Management and Labor Relations at Rutgers university\, shares the story of Nannie Helen Burroughs whose leadership as an educator and civil rights leader was revolutionary in transforming the economic landscape for Black girls and women. \nNannie Burroughs established the National Training School for Women and Girls (NTS) in Washington\, DC\, which along with her work in the National Association of Colored Women’s Clubs\, was integral to and resulted in a powerful labor movement. Dr. Phillips Cunningham’s book is the first time that Nannie Burroughs’ story has been told\, and it definitively establishes her as one of America’s most influential labor leaders in the twentieth century. \nFor our September Women in AI Ethics™ AI Ethics Reading Circle\, we will discuss this insightful and timely book at the intersection of race\, gender\, and labor\, and the crucial lessons from history for tech labor organizers and racial justice activists. \n\nJoin the discussion on September 26\, 2025 at 11a ET: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/8017397968639/WN_SwUgaJBpROCJ6BVOn1M0DQ \nBuy the book: Nannie Helen Burroughs: A Tower of Strength in the Labor World
