The Centre for Artificial Intelligence and Digital Ethics (CAIDE)

The Centre for Artificial Intelligence and Digital Ethics (CAIDE) facilitates cross-disciplinary research, teaching, and leadership on the ethical, regulatory, and legal issues relating to Artificial Intelligence (AI) and digital technologies at the University of Melbourne. Our research seeks to explore the impact, deployment, and governance of this emerging technology across society. Our approach is to combine legal, ethical, and social perspectives with technological expertise to examine the issues of these emerging technologies in a holistic manner. We examine issues of fairness, privacy, accountability, and transparency in this emerging technology to further our understanding, but also to guide the development and appropriate policy settings for effective use across society.

Templeton World Charity Foundation

As humans, our skills define us. No skill is more human than the exercise of moral judgment. We are already using AI to automate morally-loaded decisions. In other domains of human activity, automating a task diminishes our skill at that task. Will ‘moral automation’ diminish our moral skill? If so, how can we mitigate that risk, and adapt AI to enable moral ‘ups killing’? Our project will use philosophy and social psychology to answer these questions.
