Each Assistant Research Professor will work with the Tech Ethics Lab to develop its applied AI ethics research program, collaborating with a broader interdisciplinary research institute focused on ethics. Minimum qualifications include a Ph.D. degree and a demonstrated research record on AI ethics or closely related topics. The Tech Ethics Lab promotes interdisciplinary research and policy leadership in artificial intelligence and other branches of technology ethics.
