Big technology companies must rethink the way they develop products and services to put ethical considerations in the forefront, DeepMind co-founder Mustafa Suleyman said. 

“Silicon Valley has to change its culture from tossing half-baked things over the fence,” Suleyman, who leads DeepMind’s applied artificial intelligence division, said while speaking with Caroline Hyde at Bloomberg’s Sooner Than You Think technology conference in Paris.
