Dear all, The LUMI series of hybrid talks will resume on March 3. The speaker will be Laura Crompton (U. Wien). Here below the informations. ***** *Title: Who's (-or what's) to decide? - What AI influence means for human decisions *Abstract: AI is growing to play an increasingly important role in the decision environments of human agents. One of the key challenges here is AI influence - an aspect that seems largely unaddressed in current debates around AI Ethics. In this talk, I aim to shed some light on the notion of AI influence and the problems that surround it. In the first part of this talk, I will outline what exactly I mean by AI influence. For this, I will introduce what I call the objectivity-fallacy, and will differentiate between cases of intended and unintended AI influence. The second part of this talk will then focus on the ethical implications of unintended AI influence. I hope to emphasise an important change in the power dynamics in human-AI interaction, and will outline how unintended AI influence changes the roles and thereto related responsibilities in human-AI interaction. *Speaker: Laura Crompton started her PhD at the University of Vienna in March 2019. She is currently working within the framework of the FWF funded project FoNTI (Forms of Normativity - Transitions and Intersections). Her work centres around the ontology and ethics of AI influence in human-AI interaction. *Date: Thursday, March 3, 2022, at 17:00 (5pm) CET *Location: Room B1.12, Sector B, first floor, Campus Est, USI-SUPSI, Lugano-Viganello *Zoom link: https://supsi.zoom.us/j/69630066036?pwd=cFNpWmhOb0U4eENhcm9mNWtsTUxrZz09 ID: 696 3006 6036 Passcode: laura
