Planning: CRISES: Center for Humane AI Studies (CHAIS)

该项目研究人工智能（AI）的发展，以更好地了解如何实现AI的好处并最大限度地减少风险。 一个由社会科学和人文科学研究人员组成的跨学科小组将分析人工智能作为社会一部分的地位，而不是一个纯粹的技术系统。该项目为人工智能研究中心开发了一个模型，重点关注人工智能危机的三个关键方面：信任、公平和扫盲。 该研究项目确定了如何将人工智能的可信度作为人类依赖人工智能使用的基本支柱。该项目强调公平和公正在人工智能应用中的作用。该项目促进了所有人发展基本人工智能素养的潜力，以便他们能够安全和负责任地与人工智能互动。该项目汇集了多个学科的领导者，以规划人道人工智能研究中心（CHAIS）的提案。研究团队由来自多个社会科学，人文科学，计算和健康科学的学者组成的跨学科小组。该研究计划确定和研究人工智能通过关注三个领域来加剧和改善社会危机的方式：1）值得信赖的人工智能作为道德人工智能和以人为本的人工智能的交叉点，2）公平和人工智能考虑到自动化系统往往会巩固现有的不平等或歧视边缘化人群，3）研究人工智能素养的发展，因为人工智能正越来越多地融入我们生活的各个方面，从日常消费品到医疗保健、教育、金融和交通等领域的复杂决策过程。CHAIS项目组织了一系列活动来培养融合人工智能研究的能力，包括创新沙龙，阅读小组，专题课程，研讨会和系列研讨会。该项目通过K-12教师培训，教师发展和研究生水平的公共政策计划创造学习和知识的机会。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This project investigates the development of artificial intelligence (AI) to better understand how to realize the benefits of AI and minimize risks. A interdisciplinary group of researchers from the social sciences and humanities will analyze the position of AI as part of society and not a purely technical system. The project develops the model for a research center in AI focusing on three critical aspects of the AI crisis: trust, equity, and literacy. The research project identifies how to trustworthiness in AI as a fundamental pillar for human reliance the use of AI. The project emphasizes the role of equity and fairness in the application of AI. This project advances the potential for all people to develop basic AI literacy so they can interact with it safely and responsibly.This project brings together leaders in multiple disciplines to plan for the proposal of a Center for Humane AI Studies (CHAIS). The research team consists of an interdisciplinary group of scholars from multiple social-sciences, humanities, computational and health sciences. The research program identifies and studies the ways that AI can both exacerbate and ameliorate social crises through a focus on three areas: 1) trustworthy AI operationalized as the intersection of ethical AI and human-centered AI, 2) equity and AI considering the concern that automated systems often entrench existing inequalities or discriminate against marginalized people, and 3) research in the development of AI literacy because AI is increasingly becoming integrated into various aspects of our lives, from everyday consumer products to complex decision-making processes in areas such as healthcare, education, finance, and transportation. The CHAIS project organizes a number of activities to develop capacity in convergent AI research, including an innovation salon, reading group, special topics courses, workshops, and a seminar series. The project creates learning and knowledge opportunities through K-12 teacher training, faculty development, and a graduate level public policy program.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
