Grand Challenge 1
How do we design AI in a way that is transparent and equally beneficial to all?
AI has the potential to increase productivity, enhance creativity, and accelerate discovery. It also has the potential to generate unintended consequences for individuals and communities who don’t fit a default user profile.
AI is already transforming the way many organizations and people work in Washington state owing to the concentration of companies at the forefront of AI development, and the trend is expected to spread. Allen School researchers are advancing the state of the art in AI research with an emphasis on open source, open data, and open processes, to enable both deeper, broader scientific understanding and broader participation in designing AI for the needs and preferences of different populations — while mitigating potential harms.
