BREAKING NEWS: Hot off the press this morning, the School has launched a new research initiative on artificial intelligence (AI) and the UN Sustainable Development Goals: the Oxford Initiative on AI×SDGs. The Dean announced this morning on Day 2 of the AI@Oxford conference. Further details on this new research initiative can be found here: https://www.sbs.ox.ac.uk/news/new-research-initiative-launched-address-global-challenges.
The Oxford Initiative on AI×SDGs is co-directed by Luciano Floridi (Professor of Philosophy and Ethics of Information at the Oxford Internet Institute and Director of the Digital Ethics Lab) and myself. I’m honoured to be working alongside Luciano on this initiative. We are joined by other SBS colleagues on the steering committee, Alex Nicholls, Matthias Holweg, Thomas Hellmann and Felipe Thomaz, and by Melinda Mills from the Department of Sociology.
This initiative is funded by donations from Facebook, Google, and Microsoft.
We will explore how AI has been used to support and advance the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), observe what works (and doesn’t work) and seek to identify best practices. It will help develop AI applications that maximise the potential for social good and positively contribute to SDGs in the future. We expect this initiative to produce scholarly outputs of the highest quality and also have a measurable impact on the world outside of academia. This new initiative sits at the intersection of technology and responsibility/purpose, both of which are growing research strengths in our school.
This research initiative is planned to run for an initial period of three years.
The initiative is the third launched in the last three years at the School, and sits alongside the Oxford Future of Marketing Initiative and the Oxford Future of Real Estate Initiative.

Join us on Sunday 7 April at the Ship in Mortlake to cheer on the Dark Blues for the 2019 Boat Races.
Both alumni and students will unite at this informal BBQ overlooking the finish line! Join us from 12.30pm and watch the build up and the beginning of the races on the pub’s big screens in our private garden. From the vantage-point on the river bank, cheer on the teams as the boats approach from Barnes Bridge on the final stretch of the race towards the finish line just beyond the pub.
