University of Amsterdam launches civic-centred AI research group
Research
The Socially Intelligent Artificial Systems (SIAS) group is part of the Informatics Institute at the University of Amsterdam. The group focuses on civic-centered and community-minded artificial intelligence (AI) that aims to reduce inequality and promote equal opportunity in society.
SIAS arose out of the concern that AI is increasing inequality in society. If researchers do not intervene, there is a great risk that the gap between the poor and the rich and the general inequality will increase. The predominant question the group tries to answer: How can we use AI, and in particular learning systems, to advance society? And how can we do that in such a way that people from all corners of society benefit from it?
