CITP Seminar: Michael Madaio – Towards Human-Centered Design of Responsible AI

Despite widespread awareness that AI systems may cause harm to marginalized groups—and in spite of a growing number of principles, toolkits, and other resources for fairness and ethics in AI—new examples emerge every day of the inequitable impacts of algorithmic systems. In this talk, my research with AI practitioners to co-design resources to support them in proactively addressing fairness-related harms, as well as insights from that research about the organizational dynamics that impact responsible AI work practices will be discussed. In addition, emerging research to support the inclusion of impacted stakeholders in participating in AI design processes will be reviewed. The implications of our research for the design of tools, resources, and organizational policies to support more human-centered and responsible AI will be discussed.
