The AI Dilemma: Responsible AI, Bias & Human Values with Art Kleiner
Wed Jan 28 2026
In this episode of The Curious Advantage, Art Kleiner — author of The AI Dilemma — joins Simon Brown & Garrick Jones for a conversation about what it really means to build Responsible AI.
Together, they explore the tensions at the heart of today’s AI landscape: rapid innovation vs accountability, efficiency vs empathy, and the risks of bias, misinformation and unintended consequences. Drawing on the “five fundamental principles” from The AI Dilemma, Art explains why responsible technology requires human judgment, transparency, and a deep understanding of our social systems.
The discussion dives into:
How AI systems amplify human behaviour — good and bad
The rising challenge of misinformation and synthetic media
Where bias enters the system and how organisations can address it
Why empathy, forgiveness and human values are essential to AI governance
What leaders must understand as AI becomes embedded in everyday work
A thoughtful, human conversation about technology, responsibility and how we navigate the future.
