Many still believe that #AIEthics is a detractor from innovation but, in fact, it is one of the biggest factors that separate #AI leaders from beginners, according to a report from @ESIThoughtLab @johnchavens @maria_axente @dmonett @DorotheaBaur @AiEthica 1/n 
Excellence in safety and quality is not an optional, deluxe, or accessory theme. It's a core requirement for any company that wants to differentiate their business and have a healthy ROI. It is a mistake to think of ethics differently. 2/n
This report has other interesting findings - probably counterintuitive to many - such as Brazil with a concentration of AI leaders as large as Germany, and greater than Canada, France, Switzerland, and even China, and not far from USA or United Kingdom. 3/n
This puts the so-called "Global South" and Latin America in a very interesting position. Brazil is becoming a very attractive hub for #AI innovation, and Mexico already has a national strategy, ahead of many other economies, thanks to passionate people like @ConstanzaGMont 4 / n
To the disappointment of fans of the prophecies of the robotic apocalypse, people and businesses in Japan - which in 2012 was the most robotic country in the world - see #AI as a vector for job growth. For these, and other interesting findings: bit.ly/2FkNqKE 5/5
