「简报」新任 K&L Gates Presidential 研究院将进一步研究更负责任的人工智能

卡耐基梅隆大学为 2023-24 学年选出了四名 K&L Gates Presidential Fellow。由CMU 的 K&L Gates 道德和计算技术基金会赞助，该奖学金计划将为博士生 Lingwei Cheng、Anna Kawakami、Sara Mahdizadeh Shahri 和 Zeyu Tang 提供经济支持，使他们能够进一步研究围绕人工智能的伦理和政策问题。

“获得这一享有盛誉的奖项令我感到非常荣幸，” Tang 说道，他是 Dietrich 人文和社会科学学院哲学系逻辑、计算和方法论项目的博士生。Tang 的工作旨在利用因果学习和推理的力量，并重点关注计算技术的伦理考虑。“对我来说，这不仅是认可，更是暖心的鼓励，更加坚定了我追求的决心，让机器智能更加安全、负责、和有原则地发展。“

自 2016 年项目成立以来，已经有 11 名 K&L Gates Presidential 研究员被选出。本周，他们将于 6 月 21 日至 22 日在大学举办的 CMU - K&L Gates 伦理与人工智能会议期间举行的闪电轮会谈中展示他们的研究亮点。

Carnegie Mellon University has selected four K&L Gates Presidential Fellows for the 2023-24 academic year. Sponsored by the K&L Gates Endowment for Ethics and Computational Technologies at CMU, the fellowship program will provide financial support to doctoral students Lingwei Cheng, Anna Kawakami, Sara Mahdizadeh Shahri and Zeyu Tang, enabling them to further their studies on ethical and policy issues surrounding artificial intelligence.

“It is a great honor to receive this prestigious award,” said Tang, a Ph.D. student in the Logic, Computation and Methodology program in the Dietrich College of Humanities and Social Sciences' Department of Philosophy. Tang’s work aims to leverage the power of causal learning and reasoning and focuses on the ethical considerations of computational techniques. “To me, this is not only recognition but also heartwarming encouragement that reinforces my determination to pursue the safe, responsible and principled development of machine intelligence.”

Eleven K&L Gates Presidential Fellows have been selected since the program was established in 2016. All of them will be presenting highlights from their research this week in the lightning round talks that will take place during the CMU-K&L Gates Conference in Ethics and AI on June 21-22 at the university.
