UTS and GrapheneX officially inaugurated the Human-centric Artificial Intelligence (HAI) Centre. This collaborative initiative is dedicated to advancing research in human-centric AI technology while focusing on promoting genuine collaboration between humans and AI. The centre will explore key areas that include trustworthy human-AI teaming, spontaneous swarm intelligence, and natural brain-computer interfaces.
Distinguished Professor CT Lin, the Director of GrapheneX-UTS Human-centric AI Centre and a faculty member of the UTS School of Computer Science & Australian AI Institute, emphasized the Centre's commitment to developing models that enhance and complement both human and AI capabilities. The primary goal is to ensure adaptability and spontaneous cooperation, with a crucial emphasis on transparency in the AI decision-reasoning process to build user trust.
The collaboration between GrapheneX and UTS aims to establish a state-of-the-art research and innovation hub that places ethics, values, and humanity at the forefront of the AI revolution. Positioned as a cornerstone of the Fifth Industrial Revolution, this transformative initiative is set to reshape a century of innovation.
The launch event was attended by the NSW Minister for Science, Technology, and Innovation, who expressed enthusiasm for HAI.
It’s a great pleasure to help launch the HAI Centre, the latest addition to the expanding strength of Artificial Intelligence in this state. I’m excited by the possibilities AI holds, and I’m confident that through initiatives like this, we can develop it in a way that delivers for people in NSW.
