Where AI Gets its Heart
The University of Maryland is developing the next generation of artificial intelligence education, technology and leaders through interdisciplinary research that focuses on the responsible and ethical use of AI.
UMD is Shaping the Future of Artificial Intelligence
UMD launched the Artificial Intelligence Interdisciplinary Institute at Maryland (AIM), bringing together AI experts across campus to focus on responsible, ethical development and use of the technology to advance public good in industry, government and society. Students across all majors will learn the principles of AI and how they apply to their field of study, preparing them for an AI-infused workforce.
AI-infused systems have the potential to enhance human capacity and creativity, mitigate complex societal challenges, and foster innovation. Achieving this requires a joint effort between those pushing the boundaries of new AI technologies, those who innovate AI applications, and those who study human values and how people and society interact with AI.
