KINTalk: Can AI be ethical in practice—not just on paper?

🤖 Ethical AI is easy to talk about. Harder to do. Join us for the KINTalk with Tim Vermeulen, Director of Digital Strategy & Architecture at Alliander (Liander), at the KIN Center for Digital Innovation.

Tim will talk about the evolution of AI and the ethical safeguards needed to manage the Dutch power grid responsibly.Liander runs over 60 AI models in production, including models that can replace physical home visits, and models that help decide where to invest in grid capacity. But how do you ensure outcomes stay fair, explainable, and aligned with public values?We’ll discuss:

• Efficiency vs. fairness in automated decisions
• Avoiding “rich-get-richer” dynamics in asset planning
• The human boundary: where monitoring/support becomes too much
• What it takes to build an Ethics Board that works

If you work on AI, governance, compliance, or infrastructure, this one is for you
