Notre Dame-IBM Technology Ethics Lab

We are pleased to announce the appointment of our new Managing Director, Nuno Moniz! Read the full announcement here: techethicslab.nd.edu/news/nd-tec-an…

The Holistic ROI project is a collaboration between researchers at @NotreDame and @IBM focused on building a method for calculating ROI on AI ethics initiatives. The team's first paper proposes a novel Holistic Return on Ethics framework. Read it here➡️ techethicslab.nd.edu/our-work/publi…

Congrats to ND TEC postdoc @georginacurto and coauthors Svetlana Kiritchenko, @IsarNejadgholi, and Kathleen C. Fraser of @NRC_CNRC on their outstanding paper award at ACL 2023 within the Workshop on Online Abuse and Harms. More about the paper at ➡️ techethics.nd.edu/news-and-event…

Last month, we hosted an on-campus workshop on Auditing AI, the theme of our most recent Call for Proposals (CFP). The event brought together CFP award recipients to connect in person, share progress on their auditing AI projects and learn from each other. techethicslab.nd.edu/news/labs-audi…

@MereSophistry Thanks for being here. 😊

Gave my talk about the machine learning interview project at @techethicslab. Thanks for having me!

Great to see so many of the recipients from our second annual Call for Proposals (CFP) on campus to discuss their projects on Auditing AI.

The video has chapter markers, so if you don't have time to watch the entire event, you can jump to the individual talks—keynotes from Arvind Karunakaran and @cfiesler and panels with @saishruthis, @ManishCGoyal, @AlexCEngler, @cody_turner22, @pinyuchenTW, and @triveni_gandhi.

A video replay along with a quick recap of our June 1 virtual symposium on foundation models in AI is now available! The event focused on the ethical use of foundation models—which underlie many generative AI applications—in enterprise contexts. techethicslab.nd.edu/news/video-not…

REMINDER: Next Thurs. (6/1) is our (free) virtual symposium on foundation models! Much of the attention on generative AI concerns commercial applications. This event will explore a multi-stakeholder approach to these technologies in enterprise contexts. techethicslab.nd.edu/events/2023/06…

Looking forward to sharing my thoughts and discussing with other panelists about the safe use and risks of foundation models! @IBMResearch

Foundation models are drawing widespread public interest driven by the increased visibility of applications like ChatGPT. We're hosting a (free) virtual symposium that will explore how to govern deployment of these technologies in enterprise contexts. techethicslab.nd.edu/events/2023/06…

I have sabbatical plans! The Tech Ethics Lab at Notre Dame fellowship gives me the ability to spend more time over the next year doing more science communication. 🥳 i.e., I hope you like TikToks and YouTube videos... I'll still be based in Boulder but will have space to travel.

Marianna is an assistant professor of philosophy at @UnionCollege. Her project, “New Tools for Ethical Risk Analysis and Risk Mitigation in the Use of AI,” aims to produce a step-by-step guide for companies on how to assess and then address risk connected to the ways they use AI.

Casey is an associate professor at @CUBoulderCMCI and will be working on a project titled “AI Ethics for All.” Expect some great TikTok and YouTube content, among other things, as a result.

We are so excited to announce Casey Fiesler and Marianna Bergamaschi Ganapini are going to be visiting fellows at the Lab! techethicslab.nd.edu/news/notre-dam…

Really excited about the “Auditing AI” course Ju Yeon Jung and @camkormylo have developed as part of our broader initiative on the topic. ⬇️

On behalf of both ND TEC and our colleagues at the @techethicslab, congratulations to our tech ethics postdoc @georginacurto on being appointed a visiting scholar at @BerkeleyKCESP for the coming summer! techethics.nd.edu/news-and-event…

It was an honor to join this delegation.

“The presence of the three Abrahamic religions, come to sign the #RomeCall for #AIEthics, is a great manifestation of the peace that solidarity brings”, stated @PagliaAbp today welcoming Chief Rabbi Weisz and Sheikh bin Bayyah @call_rome @PontAcadLife #algorethics #interfaith
