With the recent advances made in Artificial Intelligence (AI), more and more intelligent systems are entering the spheres of industry and private life from credit ranking systems to smartwatches. AI’s current biggest challenge is to reach transparency, incorporate ethics and conform to legal legislation. Clarity and transparency are fundamental for increasing societal trust in AI technology by raising our confidence in the machines we are increasingly depending on.
With its special focus on responsible AI, the objective of The Luxembourg Logic for AI Summit (LuxLogAI 2018) is to present the latest developments and progress made on the crucial question of how to make AI more transparent, and hence more accountable.
