Artificial intelligence (AI) permeates many aspects of daily life, from mobile phone functions to vaccine research, weather forecasting, and managing critical infrastructures like electricity grids. Current developments in AI raise important questions about its future progress, promising trends across various fields, and how to ensure that AI has a positive social impact. These topics will be explored in a live #FutureTalks session featuring Nuria Oliver, a leading expert in AI and its potential to improve human lives.
Nuria Oliver has played a crucial role in AI strategy since March 2020 as the Commissioner of the President of the Valencian Community for AI and Data Science, leading efforts to combat the pandemic. She co-founded the European Laboratory for Learning and Intelligent Systems (ELLIS) and directs the ELLIS Unit in Alicante, focusing on human-centric AI challenges such as fairness, transparency, privacy, and trustworthiness. Emphasizing the ethical development of AI, Oliver advocates for FATEN algorithms—fair, accountable, trustworthy, educational, beneficial, inclusive, and non-malicious. With a PhD from MIT Media Lab and numerous prestigious honors, including being the first Spanish woman ACM Fellow, she is a prominent voice shaping the future of AI in society.
Sign up for the next FutureTalks where we will learn about the latest trends in Artificial Intelligence and its potential to improve people's lives, from the hand of Nuria Oliver.
Artificial intelligence is all around us: from the operation of our mobile phones to the research of new vaccines, from weather forecasts to the management of key infrastructures such as the electricity grid, they are benefited by this technology.
At what point is the development of artificial intelligence? What are the most promising trends and in which fields? How to ensure that they have a positive social impact?
You can follow the answers live in our next #FutureTalks with Nuria Oliver, a leader in artificial intelligence and its potential to improve people’s lives.
Since March 2020, Nuria has been Commissioner of the President of the Valencian Community in AI and Data Science Strategy to fight the pandemic. Since then, he has led a team of nearly 20 data scientists and co-led the winning team of the XPRIZE Pandemic Response Challenge.
In addition, she is co-founder of ELLIS (European Laboratory for Learning and Intelligent Systems) and co-founder of the ELLIS Unit in Alicante, of which she is director, and which is dedicated to research in Human(ity)-centric Artificial Intelligence. One of the objectives of the ELLIS Alicante Unit is to study and propose solutions to human-centred AI challenges, such as fairness, transparency, explainability/interpretability, privacy and veracity.
“For artificial intelligence to be truly positive, algorithms need to be FATEN (which stands for fair and impartial, accountable, trustworthy and transparent, educational, beneficial, inclusive and non-malicious).”
