Designing Human-Centered AI in an Evolving Society University of Pisa

Overview

This interdisciplinary Summer School examines how Artificial Intelligence can be designed, developed, and implemented to prioritize human values, foster inclusion, and promote equity across diverse social contexts.

It brings together a broad range of participants and speakers from the member universities of the Circle U. Alliance, creating a dynamic and collaborative learning environment.

Participants will engage in lectures, workshops, case studies, and hands-on group projects, gaining both theoretical knowledge and practical tools to design AI systems that are inclusive, equitable, and human-centered.

Collaborative sessions will encourage interdisciplinary exchange, creative thinking, and critical reflection on the societal role of AI.

Key focus areas:

• Human-AI interaction and participatory design;

• Algorithmic bias, fairness, and accountability;

• Responsible and explainable AI;
• Policy, regulation, and societal implications of AI.

Lessons will be held in Pisa, at the Department of Information Engineering, in Largo Lucio Lazzarino, 1, Pisa.
