Transformation is an omnipresent topic, and in the form of AI, for example, it can also be felt in many areas of everyday life. In the Bayern 2 podcast “Echt und ehrlich! Reden übers Leben”, hosted by Sybille Giel, Professor Julian Nida-Rümelin, philosopher and member of the bidt board of directors, discussed how well we are dealing with digital transformation with systems engineer and founder of bridge.the.NEXT Jasvin Bhasin. They also discussed how AI should best be utilised:
It is now necessary to weigh things up particularly critically. You can also play different LLMs against each other to get a hint – what is right, what is wrong? – in order to deal with them responsibly. That's not the world's collective knowledge.

Nida-Rümelin also mentioned the research at bidt, specifically the project “Ethics in agile software development”, and that it is important for people not to feel like they are becoming increasingly redundant. The research project investigates how software systems can be designed in a normative and ethical way.
