261: An interdisciplinary approach to responsible AI advancement (with University of Maryland Professor Hal Daumé III)

While we largely talk about AI's impact on software development here at SD Times, the reality is that AI will impact nearly every discipline, from business to finance to education to journalism. The University of Maryland recently launched Artificial Intelligence Interdisciplinary Institute at Maryland (AIM) as a collaborative hub for AI research across different departments and subjects.

Hal Daumé III, AIM's inaugural director and a Volpi-Cupal Family Endowed Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Maryland, joins us in this episode to talk about AIM's formation, goals, and the role educators have in teaching students how to use AI to properly prepare them for the future workforce.
