Registration Deadline Extended - Safe and Trusted AI Summer School
Safe and Trusted AI CDT
REGISTRATION DEADLINE EXTENDED UNTIL 13 JUNE
We invite you to attend the *Safe & Trusted AI Summer School*, which will be held at Imperial College London from 14-16 July (https://safeandtrustedai.org/summer-school/).
We have an exciting line up of speakers, from both academia and industry. Confirmed speakers include:
Professor Devlin’s research investigates how – and why – people interact with and react to technologies, both past and future. She is the author of the critically acclaimed book “Turned On: Science, Sex and Robots” (Bloomsbury, 2018), which examines the ethical and social implications of technology and intimacy. She is Chair-Director of the Digital Futures Institute at King’s, and is King’s investigator on the UKRI’s £31 million Responsible AI UK programme, which brings together researchers from across the UK to understand how to shape the development of AI to benefit people, communities and society.
Professor Parker’s research is in formal verification: rigorous techniques for checking that systems function correctly. In particular, he works on quantitative verification methods for checking properties such as safety, reliability, robustness and performance. Professor Parker leads the development of PRISM, the most widely-used software tool for verification of probabilistic systems.
Dr Whitehouse’s research focuses on Natural Language Understanding and Generation, Multilinguality, Knowledge Distillation, and Reasoning. Prior to joining Meta, she was an applied research scientist at Amazon AGI in Cambridge, where she focused on advancing Alexa with LLMs.
Dr Lopez-Rojas is the CEO and Founder of RevAIsor, a London-based company that aims to empower positive change with trustworthy and ethical AI. He is also the visionary Founder and Chief Visionary Officer of FinCrime Dynamics, a company specialising in Simulation for Financial Crime Analytics using Synthetic Data. He is passionate about harnessing the potential of cutting-edge technologies and innovative approaches to address the risks and challenges posed by AI biases, ethical concerns, and regulatory complexities.
Dr Middleton’s research interests are focussed on the natural language processing areas of information extraction and human-in-the-loop NLP. In a juxtaposition to NLP areas where web-scale datasets are available, his research focuses on developing novel solutions to problems where training datasets are small, evolving, sparse or fragmented in nature. This can involve both finding new ways to fine-tune Large Language Models (LLMs) and researching novel methods to get the most out of smaller models.
The Summer School is co-organised by the UKRI Centres for Doctoral Training in Safe and Trusted AI (the STAI CDT) (https://safeandtrustedai.org/) and in Machine Intelligence for Nano-Electronic Devices and Systems (the MINDS CDT) (https://www.mindscdt.southampton.ac.uk/).
Students, academics, researchers, technologists and entrepreneurs are invited to attend. The confirmed schedule will be available soon.
The cost of registration is £200, which includes lunches and coffee breaks. Registrations for external participants close on Friday 13 June. Register for your place at STAI summer school 2025 | Imperial College London Online Store
