VISION AI Open Day: Trustworthy AI

The second VISION AI Open Day took place on Thursday 1 June in Prague. The focus was on “trustworthy AI” and the programme featured a roundtable discussion which was live-streamed.

The panellists started by defining the main characteristics of trustworthiness in AI systems. They then moved on to talk more specifically about generative AI, which was the focus for the rest of the session. As well as discussing some of the risks and opportunities associated with generative AI, they touched on issues of transparency, explainability and ethics. The panel considered how such models could influence information production, and some of the intellectual property issues that arise when web-scraped materials (much of which are copyrighted) provide the training data. The final question concerned cybersecurity and the implications of generative AI in this field.
