Self-learning algorithms are increasingly a part of our lives. But what decisions can these algorithms make? A simple “computer says no” without transparency or objection? Many professionals working with AI find themselves on the borderline between IT, legislation and ethics, and have a lot of questions. To respond to this, the Knowledge Centre Data & Society (KDM) has opened a virtual helpdesk where AI professionals, and anyone who wants to work with AI, can find an answer to ethical and legal questions about AI and data-driven applications. KDM is a collaboration between three university research groups: imec-SMIT-VUB, CiTiP of KU Leuven and imec-MICT-UGent.
