Workshop on Sociotechnical AI Safety

The fall Workshop on Sociotechnical AI Safety at Stanford (hosted by Stanford's McCoy Family Center for Ethics in Society, the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI), and the MINT lab at the Australian National University), recently brought together AI Safety researchers and those focused on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in AI. The event fostered fruitful discussions on inclusion in AI safety and complicating the conceptual landscape. Participants also identified promising future research directions in the field.
