What you'll learn

Where does bias actually enter an AI system, and what happens when organizations move fast without a plan to catch it? Recorded live at UNLEASH World in Paris, Josh sits down with Dr. Lyron Andrews, Pluralsight Author Fellow, ISO 42001 Lead Implementer, and author of Pluralsight’s Prompt newsletter. Drawing on more than four decades in tech, Lyron explains why AI doesn’t fix broken workflows, it accelerates them, and why most bias is unconscious, shaped by who is in the room and what data gets collected. He also shares how a biometric airport system repeatedly failed to recognize him, a failure later traced to training data that lacked diversity.

The conversation is full of practical guidance for HR and technology leaders. Why hiring is often the first place AI amplifies bias. The difference between responsibility and accountability, and why executives ultimately own AI outcomes. A simple mission, strategy, and product test for evaluating any AI vendor. How LLMs can create an echo chamber inside an organization, and why scheduled self-audits matter. Lyron connects his doctoral research on critical thinking to spotting bias and closes with two steps every HR leader can take next week: build baseline AI literacy and define what “human on the loop” looks like in their organization.
