Kirsten Rulf is  a leading expert in AI theory, ethics, policy and practice, and leads the  Financial Institutions team for BCG X. Her tech policy career took root 10 years ago when she was a journalist living in China, and she became fascinated with the ubiquitous technology that was already so integrated into daily life in the country. From there, she launched a fascinating career exploring theoretical, ethical and political issues around technology that has taken her to Harvard’s Kennedy School, and then to advising German Chancellors Angela Merkel and Olaf Scholz on digital policy. 

With GenAI being a front and centre issue for so many organizations, there's never been a better time to sit down with Kirsten to talk all things AI: the fears, the opportunities, and how everyone should be thinking about implementation. On this episode of BCG on Compliance, Kirsten takes us through the benefits, the risks, and how to think about tackling an AI framework for businesses of all sizes. We’ll  also dig into all the big questions about bias, transparency and why she says the most unethical use of AI is not to use it at all.
