Meet the newest batch of faculty fellows in SCI's One-U Responsible AI Initiative. These 13 fellows will advance people-centered uses of AI—from personalized health care and urban planning to climate research and AI-enabled learning. rai.utah.edu/faculty-fellows…
🔐 SCI is part of a $5M NSF grant to develop a more secure way for cross-institutional experts to collaborate on sensitive data & train AI models without exposing private info. This cyberinfrastructure could be used nationwide to safely drive discovery. sci.utah.edu/parapet/
"We encourage you to add one paragraph on AI use to your trainee mentorship agreements. Shared expectations create a clear norm. AI can support the work, but trainees remain responsible for understanding and defending it."
➡️ Follow @UofUDELPHI for more tips.
AI should support trainee thinking, not replace it. One practical step for mentors: add AI expectations to mentorship agreements, including disclosure, documentation, data protection, & human review. Shared expectations create clearer norms for responsible AI use. #ResponsibleAI
