ETHICS-2025 Session E4 - Workshop: Identifying Bottlenecks in the Ethical and Responsible Design of AI

This is a discussion-focused, workshop-tutorial with hands-on components relating to challenges in the Ethical and Responsible Design of AI. This tutorial, which has three parts, is inspired by the 2023 Conference on Ethical and Responsible Design in the National AI Institutes, which was hosted at the Georgia Institute of Technology. In May 2023, we documented these challenges in a “Report on the Conference on Ethical and Responsible Design in the National AI Institutes: A Summary of Challenges” [1]. We will give an overview of challenges presented in the report, followed by opportunities for participants to analyze, document, and discuss challenges (and possible solutions) discovered in the course of their own work.
