The winning submission will be included in GAIEI’s first white paper, along with a $1,000 prize
As artificial intelligence becomes de rigueur for just about every industry and tech company, the technology is moving so quickly that the world hasn’t yet been able to grapple with some of the potential fallout from that adoption, including economically as well as ethically.
The Global AI Ethics Institute (GAIEI) is a global think tank addressing ethics applied to AI through cultural lenses, looking to raise awareness of the cultural dimensions of AI ethics, promote respect for cultural diversity in the field, and open the debate to new perspectives.
Now, the Paris-based organization is looking to publish its first white paper and its launching a contest to include one research paper on AI ethics.
GAIEI is accepting submissions from researchers, scholars, and public professionals who have contributed to the field. The topic of the published papers should be AI ethics, preferably from a global perspective.
Some examples given might include how AI affects a country or countries of the global south or far east, or some aspect of AI governance and its consequences. Others might include the structuring AI governance, the effect of AI on society at large and its ethical dimensions.
To be eligible, submissions should have been published in 2024 in a reputable and accredited journal, newspaper, magazine, or book. The submissions must be entirely original works of the author.
The submission deadline is December 20. In January, the GAIEI will announce the winning paper through its publicist network and make it available on the GAIEI website. The winner will also receive a $1,000 cash prize.
“We are thrilled to announce the first Global AI Ethics Institute White Paper prize. The inaugural topic for submissions is ‘AI, ethics and the future of work’ with a global perspective,”Kevin LaGrandeur, GAIEI research director, said in a statement.
“As leaders, companies, societies and the world, we have to get this right. We look forward to sharing not just the winner, but the key insights we gather from thought leaders in this critical area.”
