Beyond Responsible AI?
Delivered by: Jo Walton and Nathalie Huegler
What does it mean to use AI responsibly in HE and research? This interactive session uses a scenario-based game to explore ethical challenges in AI, from fairness and transparency to environmental costs and labour practices. Participants will work together to navigate dilemmas, balance competing values, and reflect on the power relations that shape AI systems. The focus is on developing practical awareness and critical literacy—skills that help you ask the right questions when adopting or critiquing AI technologies. Are framings like Sustainable AI, Trustworthy AI, or Responsibly AI actually adequate, or are framings of abolition and resistance more appropriate to the requirements of justice? Should we be offering a workshop called “Responsible AI,” or rather “How To Blow Up A Data Pipeline?”
The workshop is open to Sussex researchers at all levels - please register using your @sussex.ac.uk email address. Refreshments will be provided.
This workshop is part of The Digital Methods Accelerator (DMA) programme 2025-26, a series of in-person workshops aimed at Social Sciences and Humanities researchers at all levels wanting to explore and skill up on digital methods for their research.
