SIENNA and SHERPA training on ethics and artificial intelligence for European Commission Sherpa Project

The development and use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) will have both social and ethical impact. Because this technology has consequences for society, these are also key topics that need to be addressed by researchers and policymakers. And right now, the European Union is funding two projects addressing these issues under the "Science for and with Society" funding scheme: SIENNA and SHERPA, that will bring results that can help shape the ethical framework on new technological developments. During the workshop, participants will discuss a variety of topics, ranging from the application and impact of AI, and its social acceptance to standardisation efforts, ethics by design and regulatory options. The workshop is tailored to offer scientific support to policymakers to help them make informed decisions regarding the deployment and development of AI in EU funded projects.
