🇬🇧 The groundbreaking “KeepA(n)I – A Methodological Approach for Identifying Social Stereotypes in Artificial Intelligence Applications” project, funded by the Research and Innovation Foundation (RIF) under grant EXCELLENCE/0421/0360, has successfully concluded on June 30, 2024.

ℹ️ The project was implemented by the Fairness and Ethics in AI – Human Interaction Group (fAIre) of CYENS Centre of Excellence, which is headed by DrJahna Otterbacher, Associate Professor at the Open University of Cyprus (OUC) and head of the Cyprus Center for Algorithmic Transparency (CyCAT) at the OUC. This innovative project developed a cutting-edge methodology and platform designed to detect the presence of social stereotypes in AI behaviors, with a particular focus on computer vision and image analysis.

▶️ The KeepA(n)I project addressed a critical challenge in the field of artificial intelligence: the unintended perpetuation of social biases through AI systems. By creating a robust framework for identifying these biases, KeepA(n)I paves the way for more equitable and fair AI applications.
