Abstract: The University of California (UC) is increasingly turning to AI-enabled tools as a means to improve its operations. While AI can bring significant benefits, ill-conceived deployments risk imposing disproportionate harms. Launched by UC President Michael Drake and former UC President Janet Napolitano, the UC Presidential Working Group on AI developed a set of overarching principles and recommendations for UC’s current and future use of AI. This panel will discuss its final report and next steps to guide UC’s responsible AI strategy.
