Featured Work

Artificial intelligence technologies are increasingly shaping our world. These systems are influencing what we read, who we date, what we buy. They can determine who goes to prison, who gets a mortgage, and who gets a kidney. From the deeply personal to the societal to the nation-state, the impact of AI is arguably already transformative in ways we have yet to address or even understand. 

There is both extraordinary promise and extraordinary risk in these technologies. Pitt Cyber’s work on AI explores how we can ensure governance of these technologies leads to equitable, transparent, and accountable outcomes.
