Dr Oldfield will be speaking at AISB in January 2025.
In June 2024 Dr Oldfield hosted the London Mathematical Society Research School on Ethics in AI. The output from this school was concerning in the lack of support available to AI practitioners and specifically students. The Institute of Science and Technology, recognised as the body for AI Practitioners globally, is now working with industry, academia and industry to showcase the training courses, support options and professional accreditation available for practitioners. The IST also hold the pipeline for best practice in AI which has been used for several years globally. This is now being formalised academically and by government.
It is crucial that support is available for best practise as the IST is currently involved in creating UK and EU standards and legislation/regulation will begin in the not too distant future to regulate modelling in maths/stats/sciences/AI. Therefore it is imperative that the education needed and the guidance required by practitioners is available to them. The IST provides this as a non profit body and is the centre of best practice and professional accreditation in AI in the UK and globally.
