"Building Trustworthy AI Even When We Don’t Understand It"
Dr. Hal Daumé III
Volpi-Cupal Professor
Department of Computer Science
University of Maryland, College Park
Biography

Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems are increasingly opaque, including to their creators. For example, when language systems, in particular large language models, generate claims that are easily verified by people to be untrue, trust is irrelevant. What matters is when they generate claims that are not (easily) verified to be true. In this talk, Dr. Hal Daumé will discuss how people use and trust systems in such contexts, and how the systems can be improved to increase their trustworthiness. He'll also discuss various initiatives on campus at UMD related to trustworthy AI, such as TRAILS and the new AI Interdisciplinary Institute at Maryland.
