ACM SIGAI Student Essay Contest on on Artificial Intelligence Technologies

Deadline: Thursday 10 January 2019

The ACM Special Interest Group on Artificial Intelligence (ACM SIGAI) supports the development and responsible application of AI technologies. From intelligent assistants to self-driving cars, an increasing number of AI technologies now (or soon will) affect our lives. We interact with AI systems, whether we know it or not, every day.

We therefore invite all students to enter an essay into the 2018 ACM SIGAI Student Essay Contest, to be published in the ACM SIGAI Newsletter "AI Matters".

This year's topic concerns (i) the requirements, if any, that should be imposed on AI systems and technology when interacting with humans who may or may not know that they are interacting with a machine and (ii) the requirements, if any, that should be imposed on AI systems and technology when making decisions that directly affect humans.
