Companies should take responsibility instead of waiting for regulation, Microsoft CEO tells BioAsia-2021
With Covid-19 driving the digitial transformation of organisations, technology firms need to factor in privacy, security, internet safety and AI ethics while building technology products and services.
“Companies building platforms need to take the responsibility by building these elements into the design. We can’t wait for regulation (to make them mandatory),” Microsoft’s Chief Executive Officer, Satya Nadella, has said.
He was taking part in a ‘fireside’ chat on ‘Charcha2021: Healthcare to Hit Refresh’ with Telangana IT and Industries Minister K T Rama Rao at BioAsia-2021 on Tuesday.
