Artificial intelligence research
Artificial intelligence (AI) plays an increasingly important role in our daily lives. AI is being used in everything from self-driving cars to drones that assist with rescue efforts to replicating the cognitive functions of humans.
Our research strengths at UNSW Canberra are technological innovation and developing capabilities. Designing, implementing and applying AI involves answering some of the most important ethical and human questions.
An interdisciplinary approach to AI research
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is designed to replicate the cognitive functions of human beings and, therefore, expertise from a range of fields is required to harness the opportunities and tackle the challenges presented by this rapidly evolving technology.
Demand for capability is growing exponentially while escalating debate about the implications of AI for the modern world urgently needs expert perspectives.
The UNSW Canberra AI Hub brings together more than 80 academics with expertise spanning engineering, science, business and the humanities.
Addressing the technological aspects of implementation, with a human-centred focus that considers the ethical, social and legal implications of AI, our team seeks to solve some of the most urgent questions in the field.
The UNSW Canberra AI Hub is part of the broader UNSW AI Institute.
