Registration is closed. About the Event Join us for the Joint Summer School on Resilience and Regulation, arranged by the WASP Research Arenas Robotics, Public Safety, Media & Language, and Operational Data, as well as WASP-HS. This yearâs themeâResilience and Regulationâcenters on building safe and robust AI-driven systems while addressing the legal and regulatory frameworks […]
Please note that this event is independently organized by a WASP-HS researcher and not the WASP-HS Program Office. Synthetic data promises to address three key concerns for data-driven technologies: sparsity, privacy, and bias or lack of diversity. This workshop will interrogate the promise of creating better, more diverse, more representative datasets, by critically examining how […]

The discussion will offer examples of funded research projects, showcase some of HAIâs policy briefings, and […]
Denitsa Saynova defends her doctoral thesis, âFact and Ideology in the Machine: Modelling Knowledge and Belief in Neural Models from Textâ on September 17 at Chalmers University of Technology. See event page. Abstract This thesis explores questions of knowledge, language, and neural network models. Motivated by an increasing need for insight into complex political and […]
Silvia A. Carretta defends her doctoral thesis, âOnline Content Moderation: The Regulatory Continuum from EU Regulation to Platform Self-Regulationâ on September 26 at Uppsala University. See event page. Abstract In today's digital landscape, users generate a staggering amount of content every minute. Some of this content poses serious legal challenges, including terrorist propaganda, copyright-infringing works, […]
Whether robots, or the artificial intelligence (AI) that powers them, can feel emotions is a topic of ongoing debate. It is a familiar theme in science fiction and a frequent headline in tech development. Just as important is the question: How do we humans emotionally respond to robots? And how do those responses influence the […]
ClĂ udia Figueras JuliĂĄn defends her doctoral thesis, âEthical Tensions in AI-Based Systemsâ on 9 October at Stockholm University. See event page. Abstract This thesis contributes to human-computer interaction (HCI) by exploring how various stakeholders in Swedish public organisations make sense of ethical considerations and negotiate ethical responsibility in the development and use of artificial intelligence […]
The Great TransformAItion Collaboration, Work, and Agency in an AI WorldAs artificial intelligence becomes increasingly embedded in the fabric of society, we are entering a period of profound transformation â of how we work, collaborate, and define human agency. AI is no longer simply a tool; it is a force that is reshaping institutions, labor, […]
Critical Robotic Dialogues: Exploring Robots in the Present and Future Please note that this event is independently organized by a WASP-HS researcher and not the WASP-HS Program Office. While feminist approaches to technoscience are getting increasing attention, fields such as Artificial Intelligence, Human-Robot Interaction and Human-Computer Interaction are still male-dominated. Similarly, new technologies, from assistive […]
