The recursive effect of communication on technological innovation and AI development practices

Artificial Intelligence continues to grow as a topic of interest, both in research and in practice, but critical discussions have also increased. Accidents with self-driving cars, discrimination in decision-making processes (for example: government benefits, recruitment and hiring processes, insurance applications, and many more) rightfully raise critical discussions on the widespread implementation of AI solutions. The opacity and inexplainability of AI (‘black box AI’) add to these concerns.
