Struggling to choose your next research topic? Steal my 'Research Gap' Pyramid Chart and find your way Let's delve into the 7 key types of research gaps:
I'll give an online talk this Tuesday, October 31 at 9:30 am (ET), hosted by @mtwjmsdns at @TUeindhoven
How well can AI systems model human values? We create a dataset (ValuePrism) and model (Kaleido) to engage AI with human values, rights, and duties in joint CS + Philosophy work w/ @JTasioulas Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2309.00779 Demo: kaleido.allen.ai (1/n)
New article by @diamartin, @drqinzhu, Gunter Bombaerts, and me. Despite good intentions, value-based approaches to ethical technology remain biased against non-Western cultures, groups, and individuals. We explain these claims and what might be done. link.springer.com/article/10.100…
We won a ~$700,000 Institutional Transformation grant from the NSF. The project is, "Transforming Cultures of Responsible Research through the Development of Ethics Expertise and Self-Efficacy among Faculty through Social Networks."
"Why do we need Norm Sensitive Design? A WEIRD critique of value-sensitive approaches to design,” by @diamartin , @drqinzhu , Gunter Bombaerts, and me has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Global Philosophy. A preprint can be found here: researchgate.net/publication/36…
How can Confucian Role Ethics help us design robots that encourage flourishing human moral ecologies? @boyoungkim explores in the context of donation-encouraging robots, in her @ieeeroman paper with Ruchen Wen, @drqinzhu, myself and @phillips_beth mirrorlab.mines.edu/publications/k… 🧵
Congratulations to Dayoung Kim (Virginia Tech), Qin Zhu (Virginia Tech), and Hoda Eldardiry (Virginia Tech) for winning Honorable Mention for Best Paper!
According to the @appeethics, today's ethical dilemmas require innovative, collaborative, and interdisciplinary approaches. Who better to be elected to the APPE's Board of Directors than our very own #AI and #ethics expert, @drqinzhu? Congrats to Dr. Zhu! 🥳🥳🥳
Engineering is more cross-cultural & international than ever before, presenting challenges & opportunities in the way engineering ethics is conceived and delivered. Read about the 3 pjkts conducted at @UMich-@sjtu1896 in @RockwellClancy's latest article: pdcnet.org/techne/content…
Fact: The use of AI in weapons systems raises numerous ethical issues. Fact: Addressing the cultural & social dimensions of tech requires insights and methods from empirical moral and cultural psychology. Read more at: link.springer.com/article/10.100…
Let's celebrate @Yicao7777777, who passed her prelim exam! Her co-advisors are Dr. Jenni Case & @drqinzhu. Her committee incl. @hmurzi & Xiaofeng Tang. Yi plans to do a comparative study of faculty approaches to assessing teamwork, with a program in each of two diff. countries.
What type of moral language is most effective in robotic moral interventions? @MIRRORLab student Ruchen (Puck) Wen investigates in a 🚨New Paper🚨 in @acmthri, with co-authors Boyoung Kim, @phillips_beth, @drqinzhu, and myself. mirrorlab.mines.edu/publications/w… 🧵
Our team from @coschoolofmines is celebrating another grant, this time from 4-VA's Collaborative Research initiative. They'll identify & compare how people in diff. culture perceive #ArtificialIntelligence differently. Explore 4-VA Collaborative Research: 4-va.org/4-initiatives/…
Thanks to @ICTASVT, ENGE's own research scientist, @RockwellClancy, and @VTPsychologyIO's Louis Hickman, received one of only 20 Eng. Faculty Org-Opportunity grants! They'll explore and assess intercultural perspectives on #ArtificialIntelligence.
Two of our newest faculty, in tandem with @VT_CS Hoda Eldardiry, have received 1 of the +Policy Research Fellowships from VT's Institute for Society, Culture & Environment! The team will explore #AIEthics policy concerns & more. Get more +Policy details: isce.vt.edu/policysga/rese…
Congrats to @VT_Psychology assistant professor Louis Hickman and @vtenge research scientist @RockwellClancy for winning funding from @ICTASVT for "Towards a Global Ethics of Artificial Intelligence (AI): Exploring and Assessing Intercultural Ethical Perspectives on AI."(1/3) 👏👏
Huge crowd at Boyoung Kim’s talk on robots as moral advisors at @vtenge @VTEngineering , organized by @drqinzhu #ethic #tech #Robotics #robotethics
@lancset Rocky’s new office!
Settling into life @VTEngineering /in Blacksburg 🤗🤗🤗
SEE is excited to welcome @drqinzhu as an Associate Editor. Qin is currently an Associate Professor @vtenge , and we're excited to have his expertise at the journal.
