Esther will contribute to the development of tailor-made e-learning programmes that help organizations comply with Article 4 of the EU AI Act. These programmes focus on creating awareness and improving AI literacy and are tailor-made for an organization. In addition to her work for Conclusion AI 360, she remains active in academia as an assistant professor at Javeriana University in Colombia, where she teaches AI governance and responsible AI. She will also remain affiliated as an AI expert at UNESCO, where she aims to promote progress in non-discriminatory algorithms and advocates for the participation of under-represented groups in AI.
"AI offers unprecedented possibilities, but it's crucial that we use the technology responsibly", says Esther. "With the EU AI Act already in force, whose Article 4 on AI literacy will come into effect on 2 February 2025, it's essential that organizations take action now to train their employees in AI literacy. At Conclusion AI 360, I want to help companies not only be compliant, but also realize the cultural change needed to use AI ethically and effectively. We need to make sure people understand the impact their behaviour has on the technology. This requires commitment and a joint effort within every organization."
Adil Bohoudi, Managing Director of Conclusion AI 360, says: "We're extremely proud to add Esther to our team. With her unique combination of legal, technical and ethical expertise, we can further support and inspire our clients in answering complex AI issues. We help to use AI in a strategic and responsible way and to implement AI solutions in organizations on a large scale."
