About Us
The Responsible AI Research Group advances research and education on the responsible design, deployment, and use of artificial intelligence. We understand responsible AI as using AI in ways that are appropriate to the context and purpose, account for potential benefits and harms, and consider effects on individuals, organizations, and society.
Our work spans the technical, behavioral, organizational, and socioeconomic dimensions of AI. We study questions across AI’s lifecycle, from design and evaluation to deployment, use, and impact. This includes AI used for prediction, information and services, healthcare, communication, learning and training, marketing, and many other purposes. The central question is how AI can be used well in each setting, and how to identify and address unintended or harmful effects.
The group provides a platform for researchers and practitioners interested in these questions and supports educational programs for undergraduate and graduate students, as well as business leaders. Through diverse projects and perspectives, we explore the ethical, social, and technical challenges of AI and seek to advance systems and practices that are safe, fair, and aligned with societal values.
