Overview:
Elroy sits down with Elsbeth to unpack her perspective on AI ethics — where the technology helps, where it risks harm, and what responsible use actually looks like in practice.
Topics covered (In no particular order, as the rabid squirrels of Elsbeth's AuDHD brain don't do "order"):
Elsbeth's path into AI evaluation and content moderation, and how that shaped her thinking on ethics in practice
What "ethical use" of AI means day-to-day, not just in the abstract
Respecting intellectual property — the case for protecting artists and creators as AI tools become more capable and widespread
Finding the balance: supporting AI's genuine benefits without letting them come at creators' expense
AI as an accessibility tool — its particular promise for neurodivergent people, and where it can lower barriers others don't face
Where the conversation is heading next, and what listeners should watch for
Closing thoughts:
Elsbeth's take is one of cautious optimism — a call to hold both truths at once: AI can do real good, and that good has to be built on respect for the people whose work made it possible.
