Mirjam Haarman
After graduating from the University of Amsterdam, I started as a researcher at the University of Amsterdam. Curious about 'the outside world', I started working in the field in commercial roles. In the end, I was looking for 'more meaning' and I did various communication assignments for the government. Everything is now coming together at the HU! In addition to being a lecturer in communication, I have the opportunity to participate in ongoing research within the Artificial Intelligence research group.
The Artificial Intelligence Research Group researches the design and governance aspects of intelligent and data-driven systems.
Given the current rapid developments in AI, more and more thought needs to be given to the human element. It has become important to look not just at the technological development of AI, but focus more on the interaction between AI and humans. How can one ensure that the social and regulatory requirements are sufficiently taken into account in the technical design and deployment of these types of systems.
