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

该项目支持一批精选的美国博士生参加第六届和第七届AAAI/ACM关于人工智能、伦理和社会的会议(AIES‘23，可能还有AIES’24)。人工智能越来越多地出现在人类生活的各个方面，从我们的家到我们如何获取信息和参与政治进程，突显了它的重要性。今天技术专家所做的决定将极大地影响未来，塑造成为正常和可能的东西。为了全面和负责任地解决人工智能目前和未来的影响，技术专家不仅要与他们的同行接触，而且要与人文和社会科学方面的思想家和专家接触。这次会议将把博士生和跨领域的专家聚集在一起，建立网络，展示他们的研究成果。自2018年成立以来，AIES一直是此类跨学科对话的一个非常成功的平台。本次大会的一个关键方面是学生通道，为学生提供了一个积极参与的切入点。通过提供有组织的机会与参加AIE的不同学者群体互动，学生跟踪旨在成为一种刺激的体验。此外，通过让学生，特别是那些来自代表性不足的背景的学生参加这次会议，该学生项目旨在培养人们对从事与人工智能相关的研究型职业的长期兴趣。总而言之，这笔奖金促进了美国博士生参与AIES会议，促进了关于人工智能对社会影响的关键跨学科讨论，并鼓励不同的学生从事未来的人工智能研究。这一奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势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.
