Ethical Implications of Using AI Agents in Research
AI agents are compound AI models that are connected to other resources like datasets, repositories and robots, and can autonomously conduct research. Questions explored in this talk include: Are ethical values and principles of science threatened by AI agents? How should we use AI agents responsibly to avoid erosion of public trust?
This lecture is open to the public and will be held in the Searle Seminar Room in the Lurie Research Building (303 E Superior St), Chicago Campus. For those outside the Chicago area and anyone who would prefer to attend remotely, a Zoom option is also available.
Only Zoom attendees are required to register
