Welcome to the webinar on Friday, Nov. 27, 2020 at 1 p.m. - 3 p.m. (UTC +2)
Artificial intelligence is being increasingly used to support decision-making relating to citizens. What ethical considerations must be taken into account by users and developers of AI systems? What are the ethical pitfalls of processing personal health information, for example?
The Ethics of AI webinar will shed light on the ways in which public administrations in Finland and abroad are responding to these questions. The event will be organised by University of Helsinki, Finnish Centre for Artificial Intelligence (FCAI) and City of Helsinki.
A new Ethics of AI online course opens
