What is happening in Prague in AI ethics, safety, governance, etc.? The field of artificial intelligence has recently experienced a new wave of interdisciplinary efforts interested in societal implications of AI. However, it is hard to keep track of the progress, especially given the usual divide between different scientific fields. The workshop aims to provide an unbiased overview of different subfields concerned with developing responsible AI technology, and to put them into perspective of 1. existing projects and groups from Prague, 2. international guidelines and frameworks.

Our motivation for such a broad treatment of the topic is that while some of the Responsible AI subfields may not consider themselves to be compatible with others (e.g., AI ethics and AI safety), we believe that it is necessary to put aside the differences and become familiar with different views on the subject. Further, we invite everybody regardless of their opinions and we are looking forward to having a fruitful discussion.
