HMI Data, AI and Society (DAIS) public online seminar series
HMI’s Data, AI and Society seminar series returns in 2021, aiming to provide a platform for new research on understanding and designing democratically, constitutionally, and culturally legitimate data and AI systems.
The seminar is all-remote, all the time. The timezone shifts (within AEST working hours) to accommodate speakers from around the world. HMI project members and invitees provide a live audience, while streams are also be available to the public, and registrants are invited to an open Slack group where they can discuss the paper.
Videos of our sessions are shared at hmi.anu.edu.au/dais-videos
