The Investor’s Role in the Age of AI: Balancing Innovation and Accountability with Mike Kubzansky
In this episode of Future of Finance, Georges Dyer introduces a presentation from Mike Kubzansky, CEO of the Omidyar Network, delivered at the Intentional Endowments Network’s 2025 Virtual Forum. Kubzansky explores the transformative power and systemic risks of artificial intelligence—ranging from job displacement and economic inequality to the rise of monopolies and threats to democracy. Drawing parallels between AI and past technological revolutions like the automobile, he underscores that effective governance and regulation are not barriers to innovation but essential enablers of sustainable progress.Kubzansky lays out five key actions for investors to advance responsible AI:
Cut through the hype and understand the real implications.
Adapt the climate engagement playbook to AI governance.
Integrate responsible AI policies into investment decision-making.
Invest in AI safety technologies such as watermarking and deepfake detection.
Build shared standards and collective investor action on responsible tech.
He calls on investors to lead in shaping AI’s future, arguing that “safe tech is better tech” and that now is the critical moment to put guardrails in place for a sustainable, equitable digital economy.
