Dagstuhl-Seminar — Trustworthiness and Responsibility in AI – Causality, Learning, and Verification

The purpose of the seminar will be to initiate a debate around both theoretical foundations and practical methodologies for a "Trustworthiness & Responsibility in AI" framework that integrates quantifiable responsibility and verifiable correctness into all stages of the software engineering process. Such a framework will allow governance and regulatory practises to be viewed not only as rules and regulations imposed from afar, but instead as an integrative process of dialogue and discovery to understand why an autonomous system might fail and how to help designers and regulators address these through proactive governance. In particular, we will consider how to reason about responsibility, blame, and causal factors affecting the trustworthiness of the system.
