Conference: STUDENT PROGRAM OF THE SIXTH CONFERENCE ON AI, ETHICS AND SOCIETY (AIES 2023)

该项目支持一组选定的美国博士生参加第六届和第七届AAAI/ACM人工智能，伦理和社会会议（AIES'23，并可能AIES'24）。人工智能在人类生活的各个方面越来越多的出现，从我们的家庭到我们如何获取信息和参与政治进程，都凸显了它的重要性。今天的技术人员所做的决定将对未来产生重大影响，塑造成为常态和可能的事物。为了全面和负责任地解决人工智能当前和未来的影响，技术人员不仅要与同行接触，还要与人文和社会科学领域的思想家和专家接触。这次会议将使博士生与跨领域的专家一起建立网络并展示他们的研究。自2018年成立以来，AIES一直是此类跨学科对话的非常成功的平台。本次会议的一个关键方面是学生轨道，为学生提供一个切入点，积极参与。通过提供结构化的机会与参加AIES的不同学者群体互动，学生轨道旨在成为一个刺激的体验。此外，通过让学生，特别是那些来自代表性不足背景的学生参加这次会议，学生计划旨在培养对追求与人工智能相关的研究型职业的长期兴趣。总之，这笔赠款有利于美国的博士参与。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 supports a select group of United States-based doctoral students to participate in the Sixth and Seventh AAAI/ACM Conference on AI, Ethics, and Society (AIES’23, and potentially AIES’24). The growing presence of artificial intelligence in various aspects of human life, from our homes to how we access information and engage in political processes, underscores its significance. The decisions made by technologists today will significantly influence the future, shaping what becomes normal and possible. To comprehensively and responsibly address the current and future implications of AI, it is essential for technologists to engage not only with their peers but also with thinkers and experts in the humanities and social sciences. This conference will bring doctoral students together with experts across fields to network and present their research. Since its establishment in 2018, AIES has been a highly successful platform for such interdisciplinary conversations. A pivotal aspect of this conference is the student track, providing students with an entry point to actively participate. By offering structured opportunities to interact with the diverse group of scholars attending AIES, the student track aims to be a stimulating experience. Additionally, by making this conference accessible to students, especially those from underrepresented backgrounds, the student program aims to cultivate long-term interest in pursuing research-oriented careers related to AI. In summary, this grant facilitates the involvement of US-based Ph.D. students in the AIES conference, fostering crucial interdisciplinary discussions on AI's impact on society and encouraging diverse students to engage in AI research for the future.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.
