Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence Lab

Trustworthy AI Lab Works

• Our Approach
  Our approach is to work towards a world where people are empowered to make good trust decisions about intelligent machines of different sorts, in different contexts. How can we conceive of and build intelligent machines that people find justifiably worthy of their trust? Our work draws on extensive experience in leading AI adoption projects in commercial and non-profit organizations across several sectors, as well as faculty research expertise in artificial intelligence, artificial life, trust, and computational self-awareness.
  
  A major aim is to tackle the challenge of building intelligent machines that are reflective and socially sensitive. By doing this, we aim to build machines with the social intelligence required to act in more trustworthy ways, and the self-awareness to reason about and communicate their own trustworthiness.
