A human-centered system for ensuring competent and ethical use of artificial intelligence at the University of Primorska
We put people at the centre of our work at the University of Primorska, therefore, the approach to the use of artificial intelligence we are developing is systematic and holistic and aims to integrate our academic work and underline our commitment to ethics. Our approach entails the competent and ethical use of AI in the academic environment and the integration of this technology into the work of all university stakeholders.
Our approach has been shaped by a series of expert discussions and collaborations, which led to the preparation of the strategic document "The University of Primorska's Position on the Use of Artificial Intelligence" and its adoption. The document defines the competent and ethical use of AI in detail emphasizing the following ethical principles:
1. Responsibility: The responsible use of AI is emphasized by the university and ethical practices are actively encouraged.
2. Transparency: Only the transparent use of AI and GenAI systems is allowed.
3. Competence: A systematic education and training of 快色短视频 and students on the use of AI is required with an emphasis on understanding the potentials and risks of its use.
4. Inclusiveness: An active engagement of different stakeholders in decision-making and AI policy development.
