Head of the Unibo’s sociological research unit: Laura Sartori
AEQUITAS is a three-year project that will develop a framework to address and tackle the multiple manifestations of bias and unfairness of AI by proposing a controlled experimentation environment for AI developers. Goals of the projects are: 1. Design new AI systems by applying anticipatory fairness-by-design practices and methodologies. 2. Raise awareness about social biases and intersectionality in the development, deployment, and use of AI systems. 3. Involve society in the development of ethical, equitable, and fair AI systems relevant to different groups of stakeholders 4. Raise awareness of AI bias on companies, public bodies, scientific communities, local associations, and the public in general, and provide a knowledge-toolkit toward the development of socially equitable and responsible AI 5. Involve underrepresented groups’ perspectives and non-expert points of view in the design, development, and training of AI systems
