Workshop on Sociotechnical AI Safety

Speakers         November 16 Agenda        November 17 Agenda

Recent progress in LLMs has caused an upsurge in public attention to the field of AI safety, and growing research interest in the technical methods that can be used to align LLMs to human values. At this pivotal time, it is crucial to ensure that AI safety is not restricted to a narrowly technical approach, and instead also incorporates a more critical, sociotechnical agenda that considers the broader societal systems of which AI is always a part. This workshop will bring together some of the leading practitioners of this approach, crystallize it, and support further integration into both research and practice.

This workshop is co-hosted by the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered AI (HAI), the Stanford McCoy Family Center for Ethics in Society, and the MINT Lab at the Australian National University.
