In his talk, "AI For Good” Isn’t Good Enough: A Call for Human-Centered AI", Professor James Landay elaborates on his argument for an authentic Human-Centered AI. 

In the 17th century, the Cartesian coordinate system exposed the unity between algebra and geometry, accelerating the development of the math that took humans to the moon.

Building on the success of its first edition in 2023, the 2024 summit was hosted again by the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI) and the Stanford Accelerator for Learning. The summit brought together Stanford faculty and students along with leaders and participants from academia, industry, civic society, PK-12 education, and government.

When use of a healthcare AI tool harms patients, who is responsible? This session will examine how courts are grappling with the challenges of adjudicating liability for software-related injuries and how health systems and clinicians can assess and manage AI liability risk. 

Constitutive modeling and parameter identification are the cornerstones of realistic biomedical simulations. For decades, the gold standard in biomedical modeling has been to select a model and then fit its parameters to data. However, the scientific criteria for model selection remain poorly understood, and the success of this approach depends largely on user experience and personal preference. 

Experts from diverse fields convene to discuss what digital technologies can do to enhance civic debate and de-escalate political conflict.

The Coming Wave – Technology, Power and the 21st Century’s Greatest Dilemma

This community book launch of The Worlds I See: Curiosity, Exploration, and Discovery at the Dawn of AI, by Fei-Fei Liwas on behalf of the Stanford Cyber Policy Center (CPC) and the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI). 

What do we (really) want from artificial intelligence? We live in a time when advancements in AI technology is shaping our world, while critically outpacing our understanding of this technology in various humanistic contexts (cultural, social, ethical, historical).

On Monday, October 30th 2023, President Biden signed a landmark Executive Order to manage the opportunities and risks of artificial intelligence.

AI red teaming is exploding in popularity: At DEF CON this year, more than 2,500 hackers descended to red-team AI systems. Every organization investing in AI—from Microsoft to Google to Meta to NVIDIA—has AI red teams to actively secure their AI systems

The past decade’s series of dramatic AI successes has brought us closer to realizing the dream of the autonomous agent—an artificial system that can learn about its world, make decisions, and set and achieve goals, all with minimal human intervention.

Friends of the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered AI (HAI): We invite you to the second Stanford HAI Orientation to learn more about our work, meet faculty and peers, and find out more about the ways in which you can get involved. All Stanford students, faculty and staff are welcome to attend. 

In this Radical AI Founders Masterclass, Geoffrey Hinton and Fei-Fei Li will share their experiences building tech-first startups and scaleups, offering up their guidance, advice, and personal viewpoints.

In the last year, open foundation models have proliferated widely. Given the rapid adoption of these models, cultivating a responsible open source AI ecosystem is crucial and urgent. Our workshop presents an opportunity to learn from experts in different fields who have worked on responsible release strategies, risk mitigation, and policy interventions that can help.
