A major interdisciplinary initiative has been launched that aims to meet the challenges and opportunities of new technologies as they emerge, today and far into the future.

Study finds that just 8% of all depictions of AI professionals from a century of film are women – and half of these are shown as subordinate to men.

Work at the Leverhulme Centre for the Future of Intelligence will aim to prevent the embedding of existing inequalities – from gender to class and race – in emerging technologies.  

Rapid deployment of artificial intelligence and machine learning to tackle coronavirus must still go through ethical checks and balances, or we risk harming already disadvantaged communities in the rush to defeat the disease.

The UK’s first Master’s degree in the responsible use of artificial intelligence (AI) is being launched by the ¹ú¼ÊÃ×À¼¶ÔÕó¿ÆĪ.

The overwhelming ‘Whiteness’ of artificial intelligence – from stock images and cinematic robots to the dialects of virtual assistants – removes people of colour from humanity's visions of its high-tech future.

In a new film, leading ¹ú¼ÊÃ×À¼¶ÔÕó¿ÆĪ University researchers discuss the far-reaching advances offered by artificial intelligence – and consider the consequences of developing systems that think far beyond human abilities.

Our lives are already enhanced by AI – or at least an AI in its infancy – with technologies using algorithms that help them to learn from our behaviour. As AI grows up and starts to think, not just to learn, we ask how human-like do we want their intelligence to be and what impact will machines have on our jobs? 

Some of the world’s leading thinkers and practitioners in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) will gather in ¹ú¼ÊÃ×À¼¶ÔÕó¿ÆĪ this week to look at everything from the influence of science fiction on our dreams of the future, to ‘trust in the age of intelligent machines’.

The Leverhulme Centre for the Future of Intelligence (CFI), a ¹ú¼ÊÃ×À¼¶ÔÕó¿ÆĪ-based research Centre exploring the nature and impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI), is joining the Partnership on AI to Benefit People and Society (Partnership on AI), it was announced this evening.
