Title:
Why we can’t have nice things – the important role of Responsible AI
Abstract:
Many AI technologies are now being integrated into everyday life. However, how can we ensure that AI is ‘responsible’? In this talk, I will review current efforts at developing responsible AI, focusing on transparency, fairness and auditing, and offer suggestions at how we can improve approaches in this area.
Bio:
Simone Stumpf is Professor of Responsible and Interactive AI at the School of Computing Science at University of Glasgow. She has a long-standing research focus on user interactions with AI systems. Her research includes self-management systems for people living with long-term conditions, developing teachable AI systems for people who don’t have a technical background, and investigating Responsible AI development, including AI fairness. Her work has contributed to shaping the field of Explainable AI (XAI) through the Explanatory Debugging approach for interactive machine learning, providing design principles to enable better human-computer interaction and investigating the effects of greater transparency. The prime aim of her work is to empower all users to use AI effectively.
