Helena Matute is Professor of Experimental Psychology at the University of Deusto. Recently appointed Full Member of the Spanish Academy of Psychology, her research has significantly advanced our understanding of cognitive processes such as learning and memory, particularly with regard to their biases. In this interview, I talk to Dr. Matute about cognitive biases: their origin, nature and implications. We also discuss the presence of biases in artificial intelligence, and how it could perpetuate and amplify human errors. The interview concludes with Dr. Matute’s reflections on the need for regulatory frameworks to ensure the ethical and safe development of this technology.
