Over the last few years, we have seen a huge growth in the capabilities and applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Hardly a day goes by without news about technological advances and the societal impact of the use of AI.
Not only are there large expectations of AI's potential to help to solve many current problems and to support the well-being of all, but there are also growing concerns about the impact of AI on societal and human wellbeing. Standards and ethical guidelines keep coming out from prominent intergovernmental organizations and bodies.
In this talk, Andreas Theodorou will focus on first giving an overview of the current work on standards in AI and the challenges faced at producing them. Andreas will also try to motivate Ph.D./EngD students to participate – instead of being passive observers – in the ongoing policymaking discussions.
The talk will conclude with a short overview of our work at Umeå University's Responsible AI group on AI Governance.
