TRAIF Program Chairs
The conference program includes five tracks that cover important and overarching topics in responsible AI. Each track is chaired by two experts on these topics.
AI and Human and Global Security
David Barnes, Empowering AI
Lance Lindauer, Partnership to Advance Responsible Technology (PART)
How is AI being used by militaries and government for improving security and how are dual use applications being considered in AI ethics? How does the use of AI change dynamics around foreign policy engagement and deterrence? What ethical considerations do we need for the use of AI for human security and protecting civilians and in conflict/crisis settings?
Generative AI, LLMs and Societal Value Alignment
Simay Toplu, Technical University of Munich
Julia Li, Technical University of Munich
What are the societal impacts of LLMs across domains such as education, (mental) health and public services? How do we design and evaluate these systems to ensure alignment with human values such as fairness and transparency? How do we meaningfully include marginalized populations and interdisciplinary perspectives in shaping the development and governance of LLMs?
Public Interest AI
Nicole Manger, TUM Think Tank
Dalia Yousif Ali, Technical University of Munich
How can AI be designed and deployed to serve the public good (social and environmental well-being) and what opportunities are being currently missed in this context? How may AI enhance public administration, services and sectors such as education, healthcare and environmental management? What does AI governance look like in this space? How can governments and policy makers better engage with ethical AI?
AI and Human Experience
Auxane Boch, Technical University of Munich
Darren Cook, City St George’s, University of London
How does AI shape the way we think, behave, feel and interact, both online and in person? In what ways does it influence our emotions, decision-making, and social connections? And how can we better understand, assess and guide their effects to ensure AI systems remain responsible and human-centred?
Communicating AI Ethics
Franziska Poszler, University of Vienna
Ana Catarina Fontes, Technical University of Munich
What methods or best practices exist for participatory, people-centered AI research and practice? How is AI ethics being employed in formal and informal educational settings? How can we enact public dialogues and reach different groups of stakeholders? What innovative (including arts-based) methods are facilitating participation and deliberation and contributing to AI ethics, while fostering AI awareness and literacy?
