Re: AI Trust survey

Hello HydPy team, I hope this finds you well. My apologies again for not being able to support PyCon India 2020 due to current budget restraints. We hope to return to engaging at meetups on the subcontinent in 2021! I wanted to ask you a quick favor: Our colleagues at Structure3C have put together a short survey<http://ibm.biz/BdqTHP> (10 minutes) on AI Trust targeted at practitioners. We’re sharing with our friends in the data science, machine learning, and AI community. The goal is to take the pulse of the people responsible for building responsible AI. We'd like to find out what is helping (or hindering) the model builders from implementing trusted, non-biased AI solutions. Could you please distribute this among your community? Structure3C will be happy to share the results once they have them (expected by the end of this year). We'd like this to be widely distributed, so collectively, we know what we need to do to act. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks, Tim PS: See also my manager’s post on LinkedIn last week: https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:6717547052697575424/
