Many forms of AI have a problematic relationship with the ideal of human responsibility. AI may more specifically undermine conditions for holding individuals responsible. Innovating responsibly with AI therefore requires explicit attention to the design for responsibility. Professor Jeroen van den Hoven will also discuss widely on what the current status is in Europe regarding Ethics and AI, as well as the main challenges and future directions.
