The organizing committee invites submissions for the upcoming Responsible AI Symposium. This event will bring together industry and academic leaders, researchers, and students to discuss emerging trends in society-centered AI (SCAI) and responsible AI. The event will consist of industry and academic keynote talks, spotlight research talks, and a poster session to share new ideas in the development of Responsible AI.

Topics of Interest

We welcome abstracts addressing various aspects of society-centered AI and responsible AI, including but not limited to:

  • AI Safety and Robustness
  • Algorithmic Fairness and Bias Mitigation
  • Inherently Interpretable ML
  • AI Explainability
  • Privacy-Preserving Machine Learning
  • AI Governance and Policy
  • AI Alignment
  • Environmental Impact of AI Systems
  • AI Ethics, Human Rights, and Moral AI
  • Social Impact Assessment of AI Systems
  • Sociotechnical Perspectives on AI Development
  • Cultural Implications of AI Adoption
  • Digital Divide and AI Accessibility
  • Social Network Analysis and AI

Submission Guidelines

Abstract length: 150-300 words

Keywords: 3-5 keywords

Abstracts should contain:

  1. 1.Clear statement of the research question or problem
  2. 2.Methodology or approach
  3. 3.Key findings or expected outcomes
  4. 4.Implications for responsible AI development
  5. 5.Potential impact on industry or society

Presentation Formats

Poster Presentations

Selected abstracts will be invited to present their work in a poster session, allowing for in-depth discussions and networking opportunities with fellow researchers and practitioners.

Spotlight Talks

A limited number of exceptional abstracts will be chosen for spotlight talks.

Poster Chats

Pending availability and interest, we may open up a segment for submission in mid-February on very emergent research projects. Less formal than a poster and non-archival, this would give researchers the opportunity to share their ideas using 2 x A4 sheets of paper during the poster session.

Accepted abstracts will be archived on the symposium website. Authors may choose to opt-out of archival.
