ELLIS Unit Freiburg: Research Symposium on Global perspectives on responsible AI

One major challenge to humankind today is the transformative power of digital technologies, especially Artificial Intelligence (AI). The innovation dynamics of AI have attracted wide attention. Some fear that AI could pose a risk to societies, for example by augmenting and disseminating biases, by replacing human workforce, by undermining political deliberation or developing autonomous weapons. Others stress the opportunities of AI to improve health care, provide automated mobility, support the protection of the environment, protect our security with new and powerful means or otherwise support human welfare.
