How are investors thinking about responsible AI?9 oct.34 min

The AI boom is reshaping the global economy, dominating market discussions and taking over the internet. Not to mention the outside chance it could result in the end of humanity.

On this episode, we speak to Parnassus Investments about how investors are thinking about responsible AI, and how they are engaging on the topic.

Senior reporter Dominic Webb is joined by Marion Macindoe, Parnassus' managing director for sustainable investment strategy, and Krishna Chintalapalli, portfolio manager of the $5.4 billion Parnassus Value Equity Fund and the Parnassus Value Select ETF.

Topics range from AI stewardship to data centre construction and the social licence of AI firms. The episode also explores the use of AI in defence and national security, and how the negative externalities of AI are showing up in Parnassus portfolios.
