The last twenty years have seen an unprecedented growth of AI-enabled technologies in practically every industry. More recently, an emphasis has been placed on ensuring industry and government agencies that use or produce AI-enabled technology have a social responsibility to protect consumers and increase trustworthiness in products and services. As a result, regulatory groups are producing standards for artificial intelligence (AI) ethics worldwide. The Center for Standards and Ethics in Artificial Intelligence (CSEAI) aims to provide industry and government the necessary resources for adopting and efficiently implementing standards and ethical practices in AI through research, outreach, and education. CSEAI’s mission is to work closely with industry and government research partners to study AI protocols, procedures, and technologies that enable the design, implementation, and adoption of safe, effective, and ethical AI standards. The varied AI skillsets of CSEAI faculty enable the center to address various fundamental research challenges associated with the responsible, equitable, traceable, reliable, and governable development of AI-fueled technologies. For example, the center site at Rutgers University will examine intelligible model explanations for deeply sensed environments and cyber-physical systems, privacy-aware learning for sensing applications, and federated learning for nonconvex problems.The CSEAI will help industry and government organizations that use or produce AI technology to provide standardized, ethical products safe for consumers and users, helping the public regain trust and confidence in AI technology. The center will recruit, train, and mentor undergraduates, graduate students, and postdocs from diverse backgrounds, motivating them to pursue careers in AI ethics and producing a diverse workforce trained in standardized and ethical AI. The center will release specific ethics assessment tools, and AI best practices will be licensed or made available to various stakeholders through publications, conference presentations, and the CSEAI summer school.Both a publicly accessible repository and a secured members-only repository (comprising meeting materials, workshop information, research topics and details, publications, etc.) will be maintained either on-site at Baylor University and/or on a government/DoD-approved cloud service. A single public and secured repository will be used for CSEAI, where permissible, to facilitate continuity of efforts and information between the different sites. This repository will be accessible at a publicly listed URL at Baylor University, https://cseai.center, for the lifetime of the center and moved to an archiving service once no longer maintained.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

过去二十年来，几乎每个行业的人工智能技术都出现了前所未有的增长，最近，人们开始重视确保使用或生产人工智能技术的行业和政府机构承担保护消费者和增加人工智能的社会责任。因此，监管机构正在全球范围内制定人工智能 (AI) 道德标准。人工智能标准与道德中心 (CSEAI) 旨在为行业和政府提供采用和有效实施所需的资源。人工智能的标准和道德实践CSEAI 的使命是与行业和政府研究合作伙伴密切合作，研究人工智能协议、程序和技术，以设计、实施和采用安全、有效和道德的人工智能标准。 CSEAI 教员的支持使该中心能够解决与人工智能驱动技术的负责任、公平、可追溯、可靠和可管理的开发相关的各种基础研究挑战，例如，罗格斯大学的中心站点将研究可理解的模型解释，以深入感知。 CSEAI将帮助使用或生产人工智能技术的行业和政府组织为消费者和用户提供安全的标准化、道德产品，帮助该中心将招募、培训和指导来自不同背景的本科生、研究生和博士后，激励他们从事人工智能道德职业，并培养在标准化和道德人工智能中心接受过培训的多元化劳动力。将发布具体道德评估工具和人工智能最佳实践将通过出版物、会议演示和 CSEAI 暑期学校获得许可或提供给各个利益相关者。既是一个可公开访问的存储库，又是一个仅限会员使用的安全存储库（包括会议材料、研讨会信息、研究成果）主题和详细信息、出版物等）将在贝勒大学现场和/或政府/国防部批准的云服务上维护，在允许的情况下，CSEAI 将使用一个公共且安全的存储库，以促进连续性。的该存储库将在中心的整个生命周期内通过贝勒大学公开列出的 URL https://cseai.center 进行访问，并在不再维护后移至存档服务。该奖项反映了通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，NSF 的法定使命被认为值得支持。
