The Georgia Tech School of Interactive Computing is hosting the 2025 Summit on Responsible Computing, AI, and Society, October 27-29, 2025.
Overview
The Summit on Responsible Computing, AI, and Society aims to explore the future of computing for health, sustainability, human-centered AI, and policy. The summit will bring together luminary researchers in computing for health, sustainability, human-centered AI, and tech policy to lay out the frontiers of these critical fields, and to plot out how they must evolve.
Please see the Call for Contributions
Keynote Speaker
Title: TBA
Dr. Rumman Chowdhury’s passion lies at the intersection of artificial intelligence and humanity. She is a pioneer in the field of applied algorithmic ethics, creating cutting-edge socio-technical solutions for ethical, explainable and transparent AI. She is CEO and co-founder of Humane Intelligence, and the first person to be appointed by the Department of State as the United States Science Envoy for Artificial Intelligence. Previously, Dr. Chowdhury was the Director of META (ML Ethics, Transparency, and Accountability) team at Twitter, leading a team of applied researchers and engineers to identify and mitigate algorithmic harms on the platform. Prior to Twitter, she was CEO and founder of Parity, an enterprise algorithmic audit platform company. She formerly served as Global Lead for Responsible AI at Accenture Applied Intelligence. In her work as Accenture’s Responsible AI lead, she led the design of the Fairness Tool, a first-in-industry algorithmic tool to identify and mitigate bias in AI systems. She is an active contributor to discourse around responsible technology. Chowdhury holds two undergraduate degrees from MIT, a master’s degree in Quantitative Methods of the Social Sciences from Columbia University, and a doctorate in political science from the University of California, San Diego.
Doctoral Consortium
The Summit will feature a Doctoral Consortium on October 27th, 2025, which will offer Ph.D. students opportunities to introduce their research to the broader research community, and receive mentorship, and constructive input. We are looking for individuals just before, or just after, their PhD proposal defense who are working in the area of human-centered AI, responsible AI, responsible computing, sustainability (environmental or community), or health.
Please see the Doctoral Consortium page for information about how to apply.
Venue
The Summit will take place at the Georgia Tech Academy of Medicine historical building in Midtown Atlanta, Georgia. It is very near to the School of Interactive Computing and the GT Machine Learning Center.
Partner Event
On Wednesday October 29th at 3:00pm the Atlanta Interdisciplinary Artificial Intelligence (AIAI) Network will hold their Fall 2025 Kickoff event. AIAI is an organization that aims to bring the city of Atlanta, with its historical place in the civil rights movement, to current conversations about the biases embedded in our AI systems. It is a humanities-forward organization that seeks an equitable, ethical, and justice-oriented approach to AI where humanistic ways of thinking come together with technical knowledge and community expertise.
