Περίληψη/ Abstract

Artificial Intelligence ("AI") refers to a growing world of sophisticatedcomputer programs that "learn" from data in order to make decisions. Manyof these AI systems are invisible to the public, yet the results of thedecisions they make (or help humans make) have a huge impact on modernlife, often creating new opportunities to improve the lives of peoplearound the world, from business to healthcare to education. For many ofus, AI primarilyimpacts the way we do things online: it controls whoseupdates we read on Facebook, which products we select on Amazon, and whichmovies we watch on Netflix. However, AI isincreasingly being used to makedecisions in more serious areas of life like hiring (e.g.,deciding whoseresume gets reviewed by a human and whose gets skipped), education (e.g., assigning grades based on past performance), and even law enforcement(e.g., helping ajudge decide who gets bail). Thus, very importantquestions about the best way to buildfairness, interpretability, privacy,and security into AI systems have been being raised. There has beenconsiderable work recently in the natural language community and elsewhere on Responsible AI. Much of this work focuses on fairness and biases. Inthis talk, we willhighlight the fact that although there is quite a bitof research on bias and fairness, more work is needed to address the factthat AI in systems in use in everyday life may still be dangerous. This isthe only way to really understand how AI works, so that we can gain thecontrol of it.
