SUMMARY:“AI For Good” Isn’t Good Enough: A Call for Human-Centered AI
DESCRIPTION:Design@Large\, a quarterly seminar series hosted by the UC San Diego Design Lab\, features distinguished academic and industry speakers. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout “AI For Good” Isn’t Good Enough: A Call for Human-Centered AI \nAI for Good initiatives recognizes the potential impacts of AI systems on humans and societies. However\, simply recognizing these impacts is not enough. To be truly Human-Centered\, AI development must be user-centered\, community-centered\, and societally-centered. User-centered design integrates techniques that consider the needs and abilities of end users\, while also improving designs through iterative user testing. Community-centered design engages communities in the early stages of design through participatory techniques. Societally-centered design forecasts and mediates potential impacts on a societal level throughout a project. Successful Human-Centered AI requires the early engagement of multidisciplinary teams beyond technologists\, including experts in design\, the social sciences and humanities\, and domains of interest such as medicine or law\, as well as community members. In this talk James Landay will elaborate on his argument for an authentic Human-Centered AI. \n\n\n\n\nAbout the Speaker \nJames Landay is a Professor of Computer Science and the Anand Rajaraman and Venky\nHarinarayan Professor in the School of Engineering at Stanford University. He co-founded and\nis Co-Director of the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI). Landay previously was a tenured faculty member at Cornell Tech\, the University of Washington\, and UC Berkeley. He was also Director of Intel Labs Seattle and co-founder of NetRaker. While on sabbatical at Microsoft Research Asia in Beijing\, he taught for one semester at Tsinghua University. Landay received his BS in EECS from UC Berkeley\, and MS and PhD in Computer Science from Carnegie Mellon University. He is a member of the ACM SIGCHI Academy\, an ACM Fellow\, and was awarded the ACM SIGCHI Lifetime Research Award. He served on the NSF CISE Advisory Committee for six years. \n\n\n\n\nAbout AI and the New Information Age \nIn 2019\, GPT-2 could not reliably count to ten. Only four years later\, deep learning systems can write software\, generate photorealistic scenes on demand\, advise on intellectual topics\, and combine language and image processing to steer robots. As AI developers scale these systems\, unforeseen abilities and behaviors emerge spontaneously without explicit programming. Progress in AI has been swift and\, to many\, surprising. \n— Managing AI Risks in an Era of Rapid Progress\, Bengio\, Hinton\, et al. \nAlong with rapid advancements in AI research\, there are increasing concerns. Many concerns stem from a growing disconnect between the technology-centric approach to the creation of AI technologies and their inextricable embedding into complex personal\, social\, and cultural contexts. The theme of the Spring 2024 Design@Large is AI and the New Information Age. A primary focus is designing information spaces\, places that foster thinking\, in this new information age. \n\n\n\n\nHow to get to the Design and Innovation Building on the UC San Diego campus \nClick here for information about transportation options to get to the Design and Innovation Building. \nIf you are experiencing any COVID-like symptoms the day of the event\, please join us remotely.

SUMMARY:A Conversation with Linda A. Hill
DESCRIPTION:Design@Large\, a quarterly seminar series hosted by the UC San Diego Design Lab\, features distinguished academic and industry speakers. \n\n\nAbout the Speaker \nLinda A. Hill is the Wallace Brett Donham Professor of Business Administration at the Harvard Business School and chair of the Leadership Initiative. Hill is regarded as one of the top experts on leadership and innovation. Hill is the co-author of Collective Genius: The Art and Practice of Leading Innovation (Harvard Business Review Press 2014)\, co-founder of Paradox Strategies\, and co-creator of the Innovation Quotient and re:Route. Hill co-founded InnovationForce\, a SaaS company using AI and machine learning to accelerate the process of innovation. It was named by Fast Company as a 2023 “Innovative Company to Watch.” She was named by Thinkers50 as one of the top ten management thinkers in the world in 2013 and 2021 and received the Thinkers50 Innovation Award in 2015. Hill’s Collective Genius has also been named to the inaugural Thinkers50 Booklist: 10 Management Classics for 2022. \nHill’s research focuses on leadership development\, building agile\, innovative organizations\, and implementing global strategies. Her current research focuses on scaling innovation and digital leadership. She is the author of highly regarded books and articles on leadership. Collective Genius was named by Business Insider as one of “The 20 Best Business Books” and received the Gold Medal for the Leadership Axiom Business Book Award. Hill’s TED talk on how to manage for collective creativity has more than 2.8 million views. In 2015\, Hill\, along with her co-authors\, received the first Warren Bennis Prize for the Harvard Business Review article “Collective Genius\,” based on the book. Hill is also the co-author of Being the Boss: The 3 Imperatives of Becoming a Great Leader and author of Becoming a Manager: How New Managers Master the Challenges of Leadership.

Her books and articles have been translated into multiple languages. Hill has authored or co-authored numerous Harvard Business Review articles\, including “Winning the Race for Talent in Emerging Markets\,” “Are You a High Potential?\,” “The Board’s New Innovation Imperative\,” and “Drive Innovation with Better Decision-Making.” \n\n\n\n\nAbout Resilience In A Changing World \nThe near future is clarifying itself. Over the coming decades\, life will change as we know it on planet Earth. From climate instability to culture change\, plagues of misinformation to global pandemics\, human society faces more threats than at any other time in our history. At the same time\, humanity is newly equipped to adapt\, with emerging tools like artificial intelligence\, synthetic biology and social innovation that have the power to reverse the narrative of impending global disruption. The time is now for us to integrate these powerful new methods – to intentionally design a more Just and Resilient future together. \nThe Resilience In A Changing World series will invite speakers to speculate on how we get from here to there\, from our current inflection point to habitable futures where both our people and planet thrive amidst increasing uncertainty and change. \n\n\n\n\nHow to get to the Design and Innovation Building on the UC San Diego campus \nClick here for information about transportation options to get to the Design and Innovation Building. \nIf you are experiencing any COVID-like symptoms the day of the event\, please join us remotely.
