The SRI Seminar Series returns for 2024 with 12 exciting presentations exploring how data-driven technologies are changing our world, including talks on economics, law, political science, privacy, behavioural science, linguistics, and the ethics of AI. Registration for all sessions is now open.

Do we trust machine learning systems, and if so why? How can ML systems earn and maintain our trust? These and related questions will be explored by an interdisciplinary working group convened by Beth Coleman now accepting applications from PhD and postdoctoral researchers.

Are you a scholar with a PhD in a computational discipline? The Schwartz Reisman Institute is hiring a new postdoctoral fellow to engage in a research program headed by Gillian Hadfield that will explore the phenomenon of human normativity and group coordination.

Are you a U of T researcher who is passionate about ensuring new technologies are effective, safe, ethical, and fair? The Schwartz Reisman Institute welcomes faculty and graduate fellowship applications from U of T researchers from all academic disciplines.

As the first generation to grow up with the internet, millennials are more likely to be well-versed in digital technology. New research by Kristina McElheran shows that older workers who struggle with software may lose out when software investment in firms increases.

Meet the Schwartz Reisman inaugural group of faculty and graduate fellows, whose areas of research and proposed projects vary widely in scope and subject matter but are united in their focus on ensuring powerful new technologies are effective, safe, ethical, and fair. SRI is pleased to support the innovative work conducted by these stellar U of T researchers across all three campuses.
