A rambling chat - Kobi Leins - Episode 11

Data Revolution

To be fair it has been a hellish month at work so I decided to do a low key chat with a mate because I’m tired. This time my guest is Kobi Leins.

Dr Kobi Leins (GAICD) is a global expert in AI, international law and governance. Leins provides strategic advice on selection, implementation and operation of technologies to drive business edge; creates systems for organisational and delegation of ownership for complex systems and data; and uses international benchmarking to analyse opportunities and risks in face of rapidly changing legal and governance landscapes and data literacy and public sentiment. Leins is an Honorary Senior Fellow of King’s College, London; Advisory Board Member of the Carnegie AI and Equality Initiative; Member of Standards Australia as a technical expert on the International Standards Organisation’s work on AI Standards; Affiliate, ARC Centre of Excellence for Automated Decision-Making and Society; and former Non-Resident Fellow of the United Nations Institute for Disarmament Research.

We have known each other for years online and finally met IRL recently on panel and got on so well we decided to have a chat here. It had been a hard week for both of us so, armed with a glass of wine and a large dinosaur mug of Yorkshire Gold tea (it really is the best tea and I have no affiliation with this brand), we could not decide on a topic. Hence this episode is what it is 🤷‍♀️
