Join us for the third iteration of The New Real Salon, which introduces their new international initiative, Doing AI Differently. This initiative sets out to integrate the humanities, data science, and engineering in shaping the future of artificial intelligence. It is led by The New Real and the Data-Centric Engineering at Alan Turing Institute; and brings together the UK’s Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC/UKRI) and partner institutions in the UK and North America. 

AI has transitioned from numerical outputs to text-based, qualitative ones, highlighting the need for the humanities, arts and social sciences to guide its development. Doing AI Differently brings humanities insights directly into AI design, fostering collaboration between disciplines and aims to address complex, context-dependent tasks in AI. By doing so, it enhances AI tools for deep contextual analysis across different domains, and fundamentality advances data-centric engineering. 

This event will showcase insights from our research in exploring humanities-based approaches to AI design. Throughout the event, audience members will have the opportunity to participate in the discussion.
