HMI Data, AI and Society (DAIS) public online seminar series
HMI Data, AI and Society (DAIS) public online seminar series

In July 2020 HMI launched a new fortnightly research seminar, aiming to provide a platform for new research on understanding and designing democratically, constitutionally, and culturally legitimate data and AI systems. This is a fast moving field, and we think most can be gained by elevating the voices of early career scholars pushing the frontiers of research, as well as newer entrants to this multi-discipline debate.

The seminar is all-remote, all the time. The timezone shifts (within AEST working hours) to accommodate speakers from around the world. HMI project members and invitees provide a live audience, while streams are also be available to the public, and registrants are invited to an open Slack group where they can discuss the paper.

Videos of our sessions are shared at hmi.anu.edu.au/dais-videos
