Where AI Ethics Should Go

Date: June 30 - July 1 2022

Place: Hörsaal, Doblerstr. 33, Tübingen

The von Weizsäcker Zentrum and the Archives Henri Poincaré and LORIA (University of Lorraine at Nancy) are organizing an interdisciplinary event.
The premise of the event is that the subfield of AI ethics has experienced an explosive expansion in the last couple years, and it is time to take a breather from this frantic rate of expansion to think about the consolidation of the subfield and the directions it should take.

The event will take place in hybrid mode.
