building GrEener and more sustainable soCieties by filling the Knowledge gap in social science and engineering to enable responsible artificial intelligence co-creatiOn

Project description

Responsible AI for a sustainable green transition

To increase trust in artificial intelligence (AI), a European Commission report highlights the need for civil society to discuss values embedded in AI and responsible design practices that encode societal values and recommendations. Although accountable, responsible and transparent AI is a promising method for the EU, it is not yet mature, requiring new research skills to bridge the gap between disciplines. The EU-funded GECKO project will focus on the European Green Deal and AI ecosystem, making the sustainable green transition advantageous for all citizens. The project will establish a pioneering integrated research programme based on a synergy between science, humanities and technology, which will give the EU a global competitive advantage.
