The three-week international trip focusing on AI engineering, responsible and safe AI, and Australia’s stance on AI safety science, standards, and industry adoption has now concluded. Here are the highlights and key learnings from each destination visited: Malaysia: The trip started in Malaysia where I was hosted by Aini Suzana Ariffin, a key figure behind…
Day 3 at ICSE! We CSIRO’s Data61 organised the 2nd international workshop on responsible AI engineering, with committee members from the US (NIST Apostol Vassilev, Germany (Fraunhofer Maximilian Poretschkin), and Canada (Foutse Khomh). The event saw fantastic attendance, with almost all seats filled and additional chairs brought in to accommodate the crowd, with some attendees…
What an incredible first one and a half days at hashtag#ICSE2024 in Lisbon! We CSIRO’s Data61 kicked off our time at the co-located CAIN (AI Engineering conference) by presenting three papers: Qinghua Lu unveiled the taxonomy work for foundation model-based systems (https://lnkd.in/gf6dm8_m), and Boming Xia handled double duties with his presentations on metrics for responsible…
I am often asked, “𝐼𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑠 𝐶ℎ𝑎𝑡𝐺𝑃𝑇 𝑒𝑟𝑎, 𝑖𝑠 𝑙𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑛𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑡𝑜 𝑐𝑜𝑑𝑒 𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑙𝑙 𝑒𝑠𝑠𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑖𝑎𝑙 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝑐ℎ𝑖𝑙𝑑𝑟𝑒𝑛?” Powerful Foundation Models (FM) not only write increasingly sophisticated code, but they also perform a growing range of functions within the trained blackbox model, where no traditional code is ever written. My answer was finally put to the…
Just wrapped up an insightful trip to Japan! After presenting NAIC/Data61’s work on responsible AI at the UN IGF, I had the privilege to visit several top AI institutes and delve deeper into Japan’s AI initiatives, such as JST’s Trustworthy/Trusted AI programs, Tokyo University, Waseda University, NII, RIKEN AIP, and AIST. Exciting collaboration opportunities lie…
I am thrilled to participate in this year’s UN Internet Governance Forum (IGF) in Kyoto, where the discussion on Responsible AI and GenAI takes center stage. On the first day, I had the honour of speaking about Australia’s approach to Responsible AI and contributing to the panel titled “Shaping AI Technologies to Ensure Respect for…
In my new CEDA – Committee for Economic Development of Australia opinion piece, https://lnkd.in/gjbK3Uej I tackle three pervasive challenges I’ve observed: 1. The tendency to view responsible AI as nothing more than a buzzword or truism. Is AI really special, or can we simply graft AI considerations onto existing governance frameworks? 2. The communication gap between executives, board…
As an organiser of the Dagstuhl seminar, I enjoyed a week of roadmap setting for Software Architecture & Machine Learning. Here is the talk I delivered. Hand-written abstract for historical archive in the castle! With the successful implementation of Large Language Models (LLMs) in chatbots like ChatGPT, there is growing attention on foundation models, which…
